heyyy i saw them w/ sparklehorse in the summer of 99 too. great show, tho it was weird that mercury rev played first. just with their oversized thing happening, they seemed more like the headliner.

I did not see Sparklehorse, and at that time I would have been interested in seeing him. Don't remember who the opener was tbh. this was at Bimbo's in SF.

they did have some incredibly cool pseudo-theremin laser-light controller thing that I loved

I mean that's a nice song but when compared to the opening tracks of their first two albums it comes in a very distant 3rd

And I do think it'd be much better if it was recorded differently yeah. It feels weirdly muted on record

The instrumentals version of this album is gorgeous and perfect for long summer twilights.
