Fast. Tight. Happy. What more could you ask for?

Grand Prix Racecourse

Be forewarned- the sound quality on this is absolutely brutal, but it's worth it if you can make it through.

Felt Forum - Madison Square Garden

There's a new upgrade of this at LMA. I've always loved the fully organic way this grows from the tuning and evolves into the two-headed dragon of Phil and Jerry's feedback.
