These recordings document the highlights of some of the legendary concerts that came out of this tour with a 3-disc album that comprises the shows from Erie, Toronto and Rochester.

This is cosmic music at its best, showcasing the ability of one of the most successful bands in today's New York avant-garde scene to perform in a wide array of venues with an incredible range of dynamics that go from super quiet to bombastic-fire.
