Murder City Devils @ Bluebird Theater, Denver CO, 2001-03-08

 





Unsure on photo credit.  I scrapped these off of the web back in 2001.  


Going into October I figured I would post some more "scary" bands and shows.  This one is a triple threat,  Murder is scary, and Devils are scary, and people that don't live in the city are scared of cities.  Boo!!

Today is a show I know I traded on CDR back in the aughts but it doesn't have a full listing on setlist fm so maybe not very many trades.  I had seen the Murder City Devils 2 or 3 time in 2000.  Then twice in 2001.  They toured a lot those years.  This March 2001 show still had Leslie on keyboards.  She quit the band after this tour I think.  When MCD came back in October of 2001 with Botch she was gone. I recall they announced that that was their last tour ever.  The final Seattle show was going to be it. There is an official live album of that October show called R.I.P.

Out of the gate at this show they play a brand new song "That's What You Get" that ends up on the Thelema EP.  They play every song on that EP except for 365 Days this night.  Some of the lyrics are still in flux.  Not sure when the recorded those songs but Thelema didn't come out until September of 2001.  Spencer apologizes before every new song.  

They still play a lot of the "hits" off the 1st two albums and I think the sound is pretty good on this one.
Enjoy.
