Widespread Panic just released a brand-new show from their archive—the band’s performance on April 11th, 1995, at Metropol in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania. As noted in the show’s notes, Widespread’s ’95 Metropol show fell on a Tuesday during the middle of their cross-country tour that year in promotion of Ain’t Life Grand. Despite the midweek performance, the crowd was rowdy, and the collective energy made for two high-energy sets.

The notes, as written by the editor, also provide a list of moments that fans should look out for during the performance:
- “Garrie’s intro ‘…I think you know what we’re here for!’
- Early version of ‘Radio Child’
- The Mercy > Henry Parsons segue
- JB song intros
- Jojo’s Blackout Blues intro
- Epic Low Spark encore”
