In a pragmatic view of the world (where there is often a wealth of despair and where hope isn't much more than a philosophy), one of the greatest experiences is finding exuberant, live music that is on par with or even better than the recorded version. It's a simple thing to ask of life and yet for some reason so elusive to find. Below, however, is just that.
