This is IMO the greatest set of live music that’s ever been played. However as a whole my favorite show is 3/27/99. It’s front to back perfection.

[@robertsmith731]

this is insanely good. one of the best bands ever.

[@mikeysampopowich7459]

Taylor Smith basis!!

[@robertsmith731]

Yess!! Absolute 🔥🔥🔥 bisco madness 🌲👽🌲 B4L ❤️❤️❤️

[@robertsmith731]

Can't go wrong with an overture sandwich. Absolute mad lads to open with that...but they pull it off! To think I was 7 when this happened.

[@johnathonfann7911]

@@robertsmith731 Shit man here I am thinking back on this like wwooowww I didn't even know what good music was yet!!!

[@josephbergen1575]

Marc was so high. Glad he got his Shit together and is still dropin bombs to this day.

[@travismahaffey_Shamrock]

I was there!!! They played till like 3-4 in the morning.

[@felix-ve8jk]

They've had some really amazing shows but I don't think it gets any better than this set. Everything clicked just right and every single second is rock solid playing.

[@Baking_baked]

I really miss old school lights like what Matt iaroobino used to do. Just really focused

[@rob_visual]

wow Rich thanks so much for everything u do i still listen to your recordings every day much love man

[@gofyourselfgoogle875]

Barber with long hair gave him super powers. see now, and late 2002

[@EctomorphEcstasy]

Hey there Rich, I've got your name in the credits on a whole lotta CDs from when I was new to these guys in '99. Thanks for all your hard work!!!

[@isdarylonkeys2243]

That's me llol bald black dude in front of Manger getting my face shredded llol these shows at Wetlands were amazing. Thanks for posting!

[@richardtknepp]

this is so ridiculously fire

[@krapart]

Thanks for filming this ED!!!!

[@Baking_baked]

It’s all about vassilos.. and the breakdown out of overture into basis. But reallly all about about vassilios. Top 5 basis but shimmy>basis will always win that battle. But this vassilios is why i still listen to this band and why i toured religiously with them from the time phish went on hiatus until Sammy left and even then still saw many shows from 2005-2010

[@johnathonfann7911]

1:10:03 > ending Straight. Up. Carnage. That is all I can manage to say about that!! However.., All the homies that were afforded the amazing opportunity to witness this incredible madness live and firsthand should cherish this experience. It is truly amazing.

[@sadboi7537]

This is the absolute business. Holy shit. I forgot how nuts they went in the late 90’s-early 00’s.

[@travismahaffey_Shamrock]

I was there was video of 4-30-99...my first show. Drove 10 hrs to NY.

[@garrettcease6309]

it's just so good

[@ericstobin4305]

Incredible to sew this!! I was there!

[@BootsORiley]

1:00:51 from this moment until the Basis peak, Brownstein is actually kinda killin it. i'm legit impressed! i take back everything i've ever said about him not being a great player in this era.

[@solefood7477]

Hit fireeeeee

[@uberhandle42]

Best biscuit set ever played. It's strange, they're just so on here...it's like a different band. A band possessed. I really don't throw that around loosely. I have dozens, if not hundreds of "favorite segments" but in actuality everything else just falls under the overture sandwich. First time I heard this was literally life changing. I only go back and re-listen on special occasion...Sound quality here is terrific btw

[@charleslecuyer3653]

this shit is insane! thanks Rich!

[@AndrewJDuddy]

Q: What drugs is Brownie on? A: Yes

[@unoclay]

So, is this considered proto-crickets at around 24:00

[@jimmydweeb9096]

3:25 get it

[@notorioustampaton]

😂

[@mungiesilvers5544]

Barber shreds B4L

[@edwardeinhorn]

Can I get some video credit? :)

[@edwardeinhorn]

+Edward Einhorn and Bino should get some credit for the lights!

[@thebreakdownnyc]

+Edward Einhorn i love Matty Irobino... thanks guys!

[@chillingguy8386]

Thank u

[@robertsmith731]

❤️

[@BootsORiley]

thank you, Edward, for having the foresight to shoot some *quality* video footage of The Disco Biscuits in mid 99. Incredible work for what i'm sure were under tedious circumstances.

[@stevenanderson7046]

Vassillios jam is good

[@ffffffvgggggggjyds]

Back when they were cool...now eh

[@Dave_Lakin]

I love the dark nasty untz but don't understand why the band and crowd get so into it when they are playing pre school children's music. Why not just play nasty untz the entire time?

[@Runyan4PREZ]

I think you're referencing the overture? It's the opening song from the Hot Air Balloon Opera.. en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hot_Air_Balloon_(rock_opera)

[@rob_visual]

is no one saying this is a palindrome

[@BlackQuilt]

It's literally titles "The Palindrome"
