Album: London (The Forum), UK - March 22, 2004

Comments: Very good performance. Excellent sound quality - nice clean sound, very enjoyable to listen to. This CD is a huge improvement over the 2002 Encore series. If I had to choose one CD from the three Forum shows, this would be it.

Track Listing: Who Are You, I Can't Explain, Substitute, Anyway, Anyhow, Anywhere,  Another Tricky Day, Bargain, Baba O'Riley, Behind Blue Eyes, 5:15, Sea And Sand,  Love Reign O'er Me, Eminence Front,  You Better You Bet, Real Good Looking Boy, The Kids Are Alright, My Generation, Old Red Wine, Won't Get Fooled Again, Pinball Wizard, Amazing Journey, Sparks, See Me, Feel Me/Listening To You

Album: London (The Forum), UK - March 24, 2004

Comments: Very good performance. Very good sound quality. While this CD sounds very good for the most part, the "bandwidth" on Roger's microphone just doesn't sound as good as it should - slightly  marring an otherwise good CD.

Album: London (The Forum), UK - March 25, 2004

Comments: Very good performance *. Very good sound quality. Whereas the show from the 24th didn't have the right sound with Roger's microphone, this one seems to have a similar problem with Pete's vocal microphone and <sometimes> with the guitar sound. * The band seems much tighter on this night than the two previous nights. Unfortunately, the same is not true for Roger. Apparently, the heavy cigarette smoking from the audience (in this relatively small club) took its toll on Roger's voice. Roger was struggling throughout this show and the set list was cut short as a result.

Note: A hard call in "rating" the performance - as for many fans, if Roger isn't "on" then the show is "bad". However, for many other fans, this doesn't seem to bother them.

Album: New York, USA (Madison Square Garden) - May 22, 2004

Comments: Very good performance. Excellent sound quality. Another very enjoyable show. Nice acoustic performance of "Naked Eye" and short "interlude" of "Young Man Blues". Very good mastering. The drums don't have their full sound and the backup vocalists microphones are turned down. Pete's microphone has a lower volume than Roger's.

Album: Cardiff, UK - June 10, 2004

Comments: Very good performance. Very good sound quality. This is a very enjoyable show. The band seemed a bit more relaxed then usual. Roger's vocals were pretty strong throughout. Really nice acoustic performance of "Naked Eye". Add this show to your "shopping list".

Track Listing: I Can't Explain, Substitute, Anyway, Anyhow, Anywhere, Who Are You, Behind Blue Eyes, Baba O'Riley, The Punk And The Godfather, 5:15, Love Reign O'er Me, Eminence Front,  Drowned (acoustic), Naked Eye (acoustic), Real Good Looking Boy, Long Live Rock, You Better You Bet, My Generation, Old Red Wine, Won't Get Fooled Again, Pinball Wizard, Amazing Journey, Sparks, See Me, Feel Me/Listening To You, Magic Bus

Album: Yokohama, Japan - July 24, 2004

Comments: Excellent performance. Roger's vocals were strong throughout. Fair sound quality due to overuse of compression during mastering. Compare sound quality on this, to the video version (which was broadcast via satellite). The video soundtrack sounds great, this one just fair - as if they were 2 different concerts - A real shame. Note: The set list of this concert was shorter because the band was one of several acts on the stage that day.

Track Listing: I Can't Explain, Substitute, Anyway, Anyhow, Anywhere, Baba O'Riley, Behind Blue Eyes, Real Good Looking Boy, Who Are You, 5:15, Love Reign O'er Me, My Generation, Old Red Wine, Won't Get Fooled Again, Pinball Wizard, Amazing Journey, Sparks, See Me, Feel Me/Listening To You

Album: Hollywood, CA (USA) - August 9, 2004

Comments: Excellent performance all the way around. Excellent sound quality and very good mix throughout most of the show. Seems that a slight amount of compression was added from "Won't Get Fooled Again" through the end of the concert which took a little bit away from the overall quality, but only noticeable since the rest of the show sounds so good.
