Here are some questions for discussion:
What performances really stand out for you? What is unique about the way the band performs live? What draws you to the live performance? Do you prefer a live version of a song over the recording? Why?
I don’t know if it counts as a live album as such, because as far as I’m aware it was never released, but The Weakerthans - Live At The Burton Cummings Theatre is a wonderful show. I ripped the audio from it to put on my iPod, so technically it is a live album to me…
Edit: Totally counts, it’s available in all of the places…
It’s on Spotify! I love this album and The Weakerthans! Such a great band, hope they come back one day!
Huh, turns out it’s on Apple Music too! Guess it’s not a technical answer after all!
Oh man thanks for the link! I’ve only started listening to The Weakerthans in the past few years and will definitely be checking out this performance
Welcome to the Sad Dad club, where the music we enjoy is about feelings and missing cats. You’ll never be happy again, but you’ll love the music nonetheless!
I got into The Weakerthans within the last year or two as well. I listened to Propagandhi a lot as a teenager and never really followed what happened with John when he left. Teenage me would not have appreciated/enjoyed it probably, but adult me is loving it - and the live album is amazing!
