this cd is far the best of all the buck-o-nine cd's. my favorite cd from buck-o-nine was Libido but now its Hellos and Goodbyes. with songs like Who Are They? and Barfly, you'll be jammin all night long. if you don't have any cd's from buck-o-nine then i'd say get this one first. i would! but i also suggest to buy cd's from other bands like reel big fish, goldfinger, less than jake, a new found glory, the hippos, junction 18, and saves the day. all of those bands are great especially junction 18.

Seeing Buck-o-nine is definately one of the best shows you'll experience mostly because it seems to be more enjoyable for them to be playing for you than for you to be there. They always take the time say thanks to their fans. Once the trombone player ran across Sunset blvd dodging traffic just to thank me for coming to the show when all i did was wave to him. Not that their musicianship wasn't phenomenal, they are tight, skilled and explode with energy and between every song they become as entertaining conversationalists as players. That's why i was a little disappointed in this live effort. The sound quality pays them no respect and seems kind of dud. I feel that for a band that thrives on stage this album does not represent them well. Too bad for such a great band. Don't let this album or review taint your image of a band that has never let me down at a show and if they are ever in your area pick up a ticket immediately.

This album is AMAZING! If you have ever been lucky enough to see Buck-O-Nine live then you know what I am talking about! All the best songs with Jon's famous in between chit chat....Highly reccomended!
