I have to admit that this was my first time seeing Mission of Burma, which is one of those concertgoing omissions that I should be embarrassed about.  My first experience, with them playing a second night to a packed Bowery Ballroom, was a great one.  It is truly an honor to see bands continue to produce at such a high level during the second phase of their careers.  Unlike some bands whose raison d'Ãªtre for their career revivals seems to have more to do with credit card and mortgage balances than artistic vitality (I'll avoid naming names), Mission of Burma prove that they still have something to say.  The sound, thanks to the excellent work of master production wizard Bob Weston and the Bowery sound team, was excellent, and this recording, from the same spot as last night's show with similar equipment, reflects that.  Enjoy!
