Notes:
JEMS master recording. Very good sounding recording. The vocals are a little muffled and muddy for the first few songs due to monitor and mic troubles on the stage but clear up as the show progresses. It is enough of a problem that Peter openly complains about it to the audience between songs until it is fixed. This show captures Peter touring in support of his second self titled album (Scratch). This show features the rarely played Mother Of Violence and we get learn about Peter’s guru who is a stuffed Teddy Bear along with other interesting stories Peter tells between songs. Included with the flac files are pictures taken from this actual show by Raelworld who was also at this show and snapped the pics used here.
