Looks like the date in the thread title needs to change to July 20th.

But WOW!! Many thanks Videoman320 for sending the tapes out for release, and thanks to guitard for taking the time to get it transferred to DVD!

Awesome guitard! I’m a complete technical illiterate, therefore I can only assume how much work is entailed in such a project. If possible I’d appreciate a dropbox link too. Thanks so much for the hard work!

As always, thank you to Randy and thank you videoman320. I really love the 2004 tour in hindsight. Obviously if Ed was still fucked up it would be a different story, but it is fascinating to see what state he was in for each show.

I was at the previous night in Chicago for this tour. Eddie had some technical difficulties late in the show. I know during Panama. He looked like he was going to blow a gasket. He started hitting the head of the guitar on the stage. Sammy even makes mention of it at one point, stating not to worry about it and that it sounds fine. The 2004 tour was combustion able at times. I knew it wouldn’t last. I still like to watch some shows from that tour from time to time. It’s hard seeing Eddie in that bad of shape, especially now that he’s come so far from that time.

Another sad part of it (to me anyway) is that Wolfie is right there at most of the shows witnessing the spectacle of his dad playing sloppy drunk from up close.

Thanks for another VH show! This is why I tried so hard to keep my Dime ratio up! It’s hard for me to even fathom what it takes to put these shows together.Thanks so much!

Well done on the 2000 post’s kite. :wink:


EDDIE’S fingers aren’t fingers they are muscle-powered pistons that hammer guitar strings to the fretboard with the force of a rivet gun”.

I was at this show – I remember thinking that Ed popped too many vics or oxys before the show. The first part of his guitar solo – he was completely lost – and I was SO embarrassed for him – then Wolfie came out and did the last part of the solo w him – amazing!! The other part I’ll never forget is the intro to Unchained – Sammy was rapping and Ed was adjusting something w his guitar and rig – then he took his guitar and stuck the neck headstock first on the floor and it made this unearthly growl – it was SO cool – just a couple of seconds but I’ll never forget it.

I saw them three nights later in Green Bay and the whole band was really tight – really on.
