Red Rocks Live Stream / Audio Download

[geraldhmartin]

Just got the good version of the show! Amazing. They just keep getting better. I also have to respectfully disagree with those who weren't happy with the Steam>Memories>Steam arrangement. It's still a work in progress but I love it. Also love that the band thinks of ways to spice up old standards. Give you something new to chew on even if you've seen them a bunch.

Sorry, I've got to disagree with you a bit here. First off, Steam Engine is a Masterpiece! Far, far from an old standard!    Secondly, it doesn't need ANY spicing up,IMO.

It failed as far as I'm concerned but only because Steam shouldn't have been messed with. I think it's great they try these segues, but this one just didn't work for me at all.

Both songs stand on their own well enough,IMO. Especially Steam Engine

Hi, new user here, new to MMJ, saw them at gov ball this year, blown away after the first chorus of their set opener that night (Believe).  I downloaded HD flacs of the Red Rocks show yesterday..i don't hear static near the end of steam, so is safe to say that my download is okay?

haha I recognized the username. Welcome to the MMJ world...from a longtime DMB fan.  DMB will probably always be my #1, but I think MMJ is a way better band today. They take me to a whole new place, and I'm sure they will with you too.

Dave Matthews Band doesn't even light a candle compared to the oozing fire that the Jacket are live!!! jussssssst sayin ;) sorry about the 2012 World Series, from a Candlestick Days Giants fan!

After seeing both this summer, I'd agree.

Have to agree with Eric on all accounts here.
After re watching and re listening again and again, I tried to look at it in a new perspective, and listen to it when u know its coming, instead of being surprised... And I still feel it doesn't work with this song. I admire the innovative attempt, but in my opinion like I said in a previous post, this song and dondante have the biggest builds that everyone is waiting for, and it takes the "steam" out of the whole climax of the song. Again just my opinion, but I do hope they continue the attempts to change things up.
Even if they did it at the end and lead into it, kinda like dondante into lay low... Which I thought was great.
Cause that is another song u can't mess with in the middle. What if they broke off and segued into another song right as the "you had worried" part was about to kick in?
I feel like it would be the same criticism.
Again my opinion...

Steam Engine/Only Memories Remain/Steam Engine/Phone Went West is possibly my favorite 25 minutes of music ever.

Yes! That section of the show was a trip within a trip for me... Tripception!

have the dl's been fixed? haven't downloaded mine yet, but definitely watched the YT video again and again.

that's hilarious...

funny related sidenote.  My son just turned 3 months old and my wife (likes some Jacket, mostly tolerates my obsession) has nicknamed him Muffin.  And every time she hears this song, she changes "Again" to "Muffin", its pretty funny.

While I think this is a great set and that they sound wonderful, I think my only problem with this being Okonokos II is the amount of overlap there would be. The only Tennessee Fire track on Okonokos is the only one here. All at dawn/it still moves/Z tracks here are featured on okonokos (I think). Evil urges and the waterfall are decently represented but I think okonokos II should have a war begun, I will be there when you die, honest man, just because I do, easy morning rebel, Rollin back, knot comes loose, etc. to smooth out their repertoire. Also circuital - wouldn't mind a slow slow tune and a holding onto black metal.

EDIT: my mistake; Bermuda highway and phone went west are not featured on okonokos.

I kinda agree.

Bermuda Highway IS included on the bonus DVD Acoustic Chorale, along with 5 other gems cut from the final version of Okonokos DVD.  Its also included in The Okonokos Project, though not an official product.

to do a perfect OKONOKOS II it would need to have:

Victory Dance
Circuital
You Wanna Freak Out or Outta My System (one of each)
Honest Man
Rollin Back
Cobra (at least 3/4 version)
Phone Went West
War Begun
Steam Engine (the new version)
Dondante (the new version)
Just One Thing
Holdin ON To Black Metal (do we have to???)
Masterplan
(at least 6-7 Waterfall tracks)
The Bear
Evil Urges
Smokin From Shootin
Touch Me Pt. II
Highly Suspicious
Aluminum Park
Look at You or Thank You Too! (one of each)


its gotta cover Evil Urges, its gotta cover Circuital and its gotta cover Waterfall while also covering the rarities we ALL wanna hear..its a tough task, but a perfect one for a Box Set isnt it?????

T5 + OKONOKOS II (filmed and recorded at the Beacon) = Boxset for X-Mas 

[gardenparty]

agreed.  the overlap of Okonokos songs is the reason I'm not so sure this will be a live video release
