Perfect Circle 12. Afterhours / [ Michael's "rhubarb" experiment ]*** This may seem like an average Green Tour recording, which is true with one important exception: the first (and most unusual) performance of "Low", including Bill Berry's full-strength drumming. After this performance, they didn't play the song again until mid-September, and by that time it sounded much more like the "Out of Time" version complete with quieter percussion. My friend Karen R. recorded this on her walkman, and this is from my first-generation copy. Unfortunately she missed the last few seconds of "World Leader Pretend", all of "Begin the Begin", and the first half of "Pretty Persuasion". Does anybody have an upgrade? I'd love to have one! *** Michael stops "Afterhours" and asks everyone in the crowd to repeat the word "rhubarb" over and over again. He explains that in the early days of movie-making, actors in the background of a scene would do this to create the sound of quiet background conversation. I'm not sure if it worked the way he thought it would, but it certainly was memorable and weird! certainly was weird! |
