FLAWS:
  This is a beautiful recording with a few small exceptions:
  Track 1 has some static on Michaels Guitar microphone which clears up 1 minute into the track.
  A small amount of microphone static rears its ugly head again between Rock The Nation and Oh My God.

REVIEW:  by Dan Kramer (tahoespearit)
  After checking out the fish market and getting some fresh seafood, we headed
  into the venue to get ready for the night's events.  Michael and his wife were
  reunited with their son Ade and Grandma, as Voice made another appearence with
  Mom.  The show was sold out and the family was all here as Papa Pretty got on
  the mic and thanked Spoonman for opening the show before bringing up the band.

  Anybody Seen My Mind caught everyone off guard as an opener, and Mike had some
  technical difficulties with the sound until half way through the song, when it
  came back.  Right into Love is da Shit, which lifted the crowd until they went
  into People in the Middle.  Not even a minute into the song Michael stops the
  band and says that this was the wrong song in the setlist and then the band goes
  into What Happens Next as he says let's get this place movin'.  As What Happens
  Next fizzled out, the band goes back into People in the Middle (reggaestyle).

  Some girl named Michelle kept jumping up on the stage trying to dance and got
  in the way of the band trying to perform.  Michael finally asks if she wants
  to sing or something and she takes the mic and nearly blows out everyones eardrums
  with her piercing shrills.  Papa Pretty escorted her off the stage at the end of
  the song and the band continued on with Every Single Soul.  Michael added the
  Beatnig's Nature within the song as it lead them into Stay Human.  The crowd
  looked like one huge mass jumping and pulsating together.  They slowed it down
  a bit, as Radio got his baby from mom to bring up on stage for Never too Late.
  Yes I Will followed, and I hoped they would try out the funky version that Mike
  had played from the studio for me earlier in the day.  They decided to incorporate
  it into the version they had already been playing, and it sounded pretty cool.
  Carl's bass line is incredibly funky and has lots of dance potential.  (Keep
  your ears out for it)

  The What I Be, Pray for Grace medley erupted out of the cheers from the last song
  and set the groove for everyone to bounce to.  As Pray For Grace came to an end,
  Michael slowed it down again with the new song, In The Light.  Dave once again
  just shreds his solo which helps to create the feeling of the song!  Michael then
  picks up his acoustic guitar and leads the band into Everyone Deserves Music.
  Mike continues the acoustic vibe with Feelin' Free.  After jamming it out for
  all it is worth, the guys stepped it up abit and rock us into Soulshine to end
  the set.  

  The band leaves the stage as Radio comes back armed with his two panflutes and
  rocks everyone out until switching up to the beatboxing part of his solo.  He
  hyped the crowd up enough to bring the band back out for Rock The Nation which
  sent the crowd into a whirlwind.  The dust cleared as Oh My God rang out from
  the stage and everyone started swaying to the vibe.  The guys played on
  introducing Positive to the crowd for the first time on this tour.  Bob played
  well and you couldn't really tell that he was new to the material.  We Don't Mind
  was a pleasent addition to the encore and at the end, Michael took a second to
  acknowledge Bob's Dad who was in the audience and celebrating his 80th birthday
  in a couple of days.  Love Why Did You Go was up next with the band letting off
  for a second so Radio and Dave could play off each other for abit.  As the song
  slowly ends, Michael then invites everyone to the 911 Power to the Peaceful concert
  on the 7th of Sept.  And like usual he uses his invitation to transition into Bomb
  The World.  Sometimes finished up the night like usual as they added the Running
  Away/Crazy Baldheads medley at the end of Sometimes.
