Ok read all the reviews below. Take in consideration that a butt ton of people were there (aragon .... sold OUT!) Look at the setlist. Download it ... and for people who werent there .... times the great experience you have while listening to it by 10. Then you will have an accurate scale of how great the show was in person and why everyone should go check them out this comming new years. Best experience ever!!! (possibly better than summer camp?????). Dunno thats a tough call! lol. Download for sure! If your a UM fan ... it is a must have!

Great arrangement for the night! Brass for Bridgeless, Tinkle`s, Higgins and Partyin` Peeps really made the night that much more special....apart from the obvious fact that the Aragon Ballroom, itself, was a perfect ending to such an extensive, expanding, and exciting year for Umphrey`s. All in Time to start the first set, and HBB to end it?? Seemed like we were in for quite a night after our first taste of the classic monster-esque show that Umphrey`s puts on for the coming of the new year. Ocean Billy>Glory>Ocean Billy and the medley pulled every ounce of attention, if you hadn`t surrendered it already, towards the stage for the second set of the evening. And who could deny that Nothing Too Fancy w/long time friend Keller Williams leading up to the NYE countdown was going to be anything short of spectacular(and nearly completely exhausting!!). Hearing that authentic, ear-popping train horn was all too perfect for the final second of the year, leading into the ever-infamous Auld Lang Syne (w/Keller joining UM on stage). Of course, no better way to start off the New Year than to perform a searing version of Resolution (get it?). Then came, arguably, one of the very best Partyin` Peeps to date. Nothin more to be said. Voice completely lost by this point. Dub Breathe, Breathe Reprise and Great Gig in the Sky gave the audience their third wind, letting them stand back and completely soak in the flawlessness of umphrey`s playing skills and thoroughly appreciate their tribute to one of rocks all-time legendary bands, Pink Floyd. You could practically write a novel based on this night. That is....if you remembered it all....

I think it`s safe to say we have no idea how great this next NYE, or this band for that matter, will be.

Hope you enjoyed the read.

The All In Time and Bridgeless(with horns) are perhaps the best versions of these songs that I have ever seen or heard. This new tune (got your milk) really gets the crowd going. It sounds awesome on this disc and I am sure it will be a staple in their arsenal for years to come. O and dont` forget the dub side of the moon it`s ill! How can you go wrong, it`s only 10 dollars!!!

What a night! What can I say, this is several hours of mind-blowing music. From the raging All In Time opener all the way through midnight until the Floyd encore, this is a must-download whether you attended or not. Great originals, great covers, great new tunes (especially got your milk and believe the lie). In summation, this was a kick ass new year`s in chicago!

The boys brought it hard, All in Time Opener was out of this world! What else can I say than this was the best UM show that I`ve ever seen or heard. Fantastic!!!!
