LBU= the Hip album that sold the band to me. I remember that summer after it came out, I painted the entire trim to my house while jamming to LBU on the jam box. Made the wife, kids and neighbors listen daily....
Up to that point I had FC and had seen the band once @ Chene Park 93 Detroit. I was a casual fan until LBU.
What a cool intro...drum loop then JF kickin in. In my opinion...There is NO limit to how loud you can play that version of Grace!

the band had originally thought of releasing this on a double disc to accomodate the entire concert, i believe. think they put a kibosh on it due to the cost of producing a double disc back in '97. with advent of i-tunes and other digital sites, why not re-release it with the missing tracks!?

I heard that the reason was that the timing of the main set fit perfectly, and Gord thanks the crowd to close the disc... but I'm all for the complete show being released.

...The biggest hurdle was a question of time. We wanted to boil the show down to 70 minutes of music to fit onto a single CD. Doing a double live record was out of the question for us. Too expensive and too much music for one sitting. We wanted to do something with its own pace like a real live set, with a beginning, middle and end that you could hear and feel. The encores, 700ft Ceiling, Daredevil, and Flamenco were all sacrificed to that end.....
