"The first half of the program, devoted to the new piece Dark Side, is very sloppy and uninspired. Granted they tinkered with arrangements throughout the year, but the first Tokyo performance lacks the cohesion and spark of later performances. It is evident early on with a stale run through of Breathe and leads into a quiet On The Run.
From a review: "The recording isnt taped professionally as most radio recordings are. It was probably taped on stage with very good equipment, but one shouldnt expect a pristine, well balanced soundboard recording on disc three.
Two weeks seperate the end of the European tour and the beginning of Japan, yet the lay off really affected the momentum gained in the first couple months of the year regarding their new piece."
