Soundboard Audio





This was the last show of the Neon Ballroom tour in North America. Prior to the show, the band did an interview on local radio station 99X. That interview does have a circulating source currently not in the archive.



If the performance wasn't interesting enough, the source behind this recording might be. I am labeling this as a soundboard recording instead of an FM broadcast, as there are no radio station bumpers or visible edits. The entire show is here with the exception of the second half of Spawn Again. A decent transfer from an already unbalanced mix. The bass and drums stand out quite a bit more than the rest, and you definitely get a better sense of the inconsistencies in Daniel's voice after such a long tour stretch. Combine this was the already archived audio of Mrytle Beach, there might be a series of shows on this tour with uncirculating soundboard sources. Most notable about the recording is that it might have the clearest Taxi Driver intro out of any tour recording.



Unsure if this was a try hard performance, or the band was a bit more pumped and loose, but this show reminds me of the hard edged shows the band did in France and Montreal during the Freak Show tour. With that hard edge comes a large amount of fans taking their game to the next level. Slave is stopped due to the craziness, prompting Daniel to yell out about picking someone up. The issue is then made light of again before Ana's Song, when Daniel asks everyone to be careful in their "little circle of violence".



Daniel changes the lyric "I'm a freak" before the second verse to "suck my dick". This also seems it might be one of the first shows where Daniel uses the different voices during Freak, that fans were more aware of in later tours.



A video source for this show does exist. It to my understanding has not much of a visual through most of the performance.





The setlist was :



01 - Intro

02 - Israel's Son

03 - Emotion Sickness

04 - Slave

05 - Pure Massacre

06 - Ana's Song

07 - The Door

08 - Freak

09 - Anthem For The Year 2000

10 - Spawn Again
