Some high highs and some low lows, with average-for-2000 (which is to say, generally good) performances thrown in. The high highs include STONE (always a great opener, and this is a great performance), GRACE (Dave, Boyd, and Roi all sound great), MINARETS (the obvious highlight of the show; I love it with the 12-string), and RAPUNZEL. The low lows include WHAT WOULD, SO MUCH, and ANTS, all of which Dave butchers lyric-wise. Of the 7 songs on both LT3 and LT11 (sequential shows in the tour, separated by only two days), I don't think any were better on LT11. I don't want to get ahead of our listening tour, but this is *probably* my least favorite official release from 2000, as of today (April 15, 2024).
