4.0 out of 5 stars
Recorded live in Philadelphia supported by bunch of teenage girls, October 20, 2006
This review is from: The Fray Live at the Electric Factory, Bootleg No. 1 (Audio CD)
First of all, they sound pretty good live. As for this CD, it kind of reminded me of Dashboard's Unplugged CD. Most of the audience sounds like teenage girls as whenever the band performed their hit songs, you hear the high pitch screaming in the background, and they sing along word for word. If you are a hardcore Fray fan, you might enjoy some of the tracks where Slade talks to the audience. On one, he starts out, "It's a poem that I wrote as a small child...."

eh...., May 21, 2008
This review is from: The Fray Live at the Electric Factory, Bootleg No. 1 (Audio CD)
I think they sound great live, and it really shows off their talent, but i hated the screaming teeny-boppers singing along, they should have recorded this in a studio

5.0 out of 5 stars
Great album!, June 15, 2007
This review is from: The Fray Live at the Electric Factory, Bootleg No. 1 (Audio CD)
I must say the Fray live is amazing! all the songs are very deep and there are some great vocals/
How to Save a Life:5/5
She is: 4/5 but becomes 5/5 in the second half or so
All at Once: 5/5
Heaven Forbid:5/5 Best vocals on the album and a cathcy melody
Vienna:5/5 great lyrics very touching
Dead Wrong:4/5 good but the is not as catchy
Over my Head (Cable Car): 4/5 good, but overplayed, and does not seem to fit well with everything else on the album
Look After You: 5/5 great music: vocals, melody, all amazing
Trust me: very relaxed and quiet, a great closer
With almost all these songs their chorus and/or middle is the strongest part (Vienna, How to Save a Life, Look after You) and their beginings tend to earn a 4 rather then a 5 but almost all amaze you by the end of the song.
