Comments:
In terms of performance, the band was kind of limping to the finish line at this point of the tour; since the remainder of their U.S. dates were canceled a week later due to the death of Robert Plant's son, this represents one of the final shows they played in North America. I've always thought of this show as kind of sloppy, and it certainly doesn't reach the heights of their Los Angeles dates a few weeks prior. I'm sure the inadequacy of the venue (the now-deceased Kingdome) played a role in the average performance.

Sound quality is pretty good, though I'm guessing the original audio came from the in-house video feed. The mix is ok, with all band members evenly featured and prominent vocals, though it sounds a little flat. I can't comment on how the EVSD release compares with other titles and versions on the tracker.
