Or not? I haven't been to a recent one. Please share your opinions.

the live performances I have heard sound wicked. It's cool to hear them be a band again.

I must say the Bataclan show was propably the best Beastie show I have seen (but I've "only" seen 16 by now), Glasgow 1995 coming close second.

Their first night in Barcelona the other week was incredibly enjoyable. It was a Gala show, and the band were in such high spirits. Plenty of banter with each other and the crowd. It was the night when Mike D wore that captain's outfit. I sat in some bar after, just grinning from ear to ear.

Cologne (Köln) / Germany 06/23/2007 ... why?

answer:
- perfect setlist (jimmy james ....)
- excellent sound, very clear and brilliant
- nice location (small, old factory-style)
- delicous weed & beer from cologne
- i was in the mood

we should pass the mic (question) to the band ... would be interesting to hear their perspective to that question.

i was also at the Hiro, and it was amazing, almost unreal being in a venue that small....

but i'd have to say october 9th, 2004 at the garden ... was perhaps the best night of my life. and i'm lucky enough to have AIFST as a great reminder of it.

I would have to agree with the last user. October 9th at Madison was the best show I have ever been to. I also saw them at Jones beach that previous summer for Krock's Dysfunctional Family Picnic. They put on a good preformance then but nothing close to the dvd worthy AIFST. They are gold when it comes to preforming.
