Comment

This performance was recorded January 25, 1999 at the Alte Mälzerei, Regensburg, Germany.

A word from Rich...For me, this band, this show, these songs, this tour and this particular evening pretty much says it all. After all the years of writing songs, practicing together with nearly 30 different members over the 15 years, touring and playing hundreds of shows, the infamous wrestling matches David and I would get into...and it happened more than once!...all I really can say is that after listening to this recording, I am very proud to say what a great band we were, how great the songs were and how much fun we had. This particular tour in 1999 would be our very very last real tour and I think it is safe to say we never sounded better. We are grateful for the numerous opportunities that were presented to us along the way...too many to mention, but we are most grateful to our families, fans, friends and record companies who supported us every step of the way. Thank you.
