Live Show: Built To Spill (10/15/1999)
Built To Spill are coming back to Atlanta (thankfully without Kings of Leon) August 9th to play at the Buckhead Theatre, which I believe used to be the Roxy after it was originally the Buckhead Theatre. Or something like that. Anyways, I figured I’d dig through the vault, pick out one of my hundred plus BTS bootlegs, and post it up to celebrate. Despite only containing four songs, this is one of my favourite live recordings from them. It is not an official BTS show, but rather was billed as “The Dug Trio”. The first three cuts are songs that years later ended up on Doug Martsch‘s solo record. “Impossible” might be the second best song Martsch ever wrote, and this version is epic. The closer is of course the greatest cover of all time, but an alternate version from the one that appears on the official Live record. Enjoy:
