Q: How do you get the energy and excitement of a HWM live show in your living room?
A: Get them to play there.
Can't get them to play at your house? This album is the next best thing. Standouts include killer renditions of "Us & Chuck", "Turnstile", "Moments Pass", "Better Sense", "Manual".

This is actually my favorite HWM recording. You can feel the intensity and sense the love affair between fan and band. This captures everything that is HWM, the sincerity, the positivity, the love. Everytime the crowd chimes in is a moving experience to itself. If you love HWM, and you don't have this you are seriously missing out.

To call this record live almost feels like a lie. To most of us the idea of a live record brings doubts about the sound quality. This record has some of the best live sound quality that I have ever heard. You should already know what to expect from Hot Water Music. Good hard rocking music. Heartfelt emotional lyrics and amazing subtle harmonies. This is a great record. Next best thing to seeing them live. Go out and get it.

This CD is a recording of the last show to be at the Hardback, Hot Water Music's home court. Based on the chills I get from listening to these songs, seeing them live is nothing short of mind blowing. It puts a different twist on the songs you know from all the other albums. Your blood really gets flowing when the whole crowd starts singing along. If Hot Water Music comes anywhere within a days-long trip of my town, I'll be sure to get there.

My friend jersey dave and I got to the show 4 hours early becouse we were bored. what we found was the sun center filled with hundreds of kids . Some of them were from as far way as germany. The show was insane. If you can imagine getting chills in a room that was that small and like 120 degrees, that was how increadible it was. and being arm in arm with people from 1000 miles away was nothing short of mindblowing. this record is phenomenal. one of the 2 greatest live records I have ever heard (right up there w/ kiss alive). buy this record, put it on and go nuts

This recording came out great. It was difficult to imagine the recording coming out good because it was soooooo hot in there and there were soooooo many people there. Yes, I was there chump!! and this is the next best thing to that unforgetable show.

If you've ever wished you could have gone to that concert last week, than this cd will make you feel like that. If you've ever herd any of the bad-[...]songs that were recorded on this album than you know how pumped this concert was. Every song is twice as fast if not faster than the originals. Comming from a drummer: if you love kick-[...] beats and alsome drumming, than pick this up. I would pay [$] for this if it cost it. So get one for a friend. ~Brent
