Karen '99 is my favorite live recording of a band ever. It has so much passion and energy, I never get sick of hearing it. I like Anders vocals on that boot better than anything else I've ever heard of him.nemuu said:You think Anders accent in Tokyo Showdown is amusing? Have a look at the 1996 Köln video
Bozz: Look around on DC (you will most certainly find it on hub metal.no-ip.info). 2001 is a nice bootleg (has Square Nothing), but tracklist-wise, the Gothenburg 1999 is superior.
Also, to whoever said Japanese crowds are quiet and inactive, listen to "Tokyo Tales" by Blind Guardian. They are insanely loud and into it. Tokyo Showdown sucks, point-blank. Karen '99, Popstatd 2001, hell, Osaka Japan '99 would all have made far superior live albums, and they're unprofessionally recorded bootlegs.
