Bonus:

This board loves this band (I do as well) but is a live album so I have it on the weekend Year In Review. This is the last week for Year In Review so I had to throw it in now because everything is set for next week.

Average Metacritic score 79 (20 reviews):

Probably the best live album since, arguably, that Nirvana Unplugged thing. Possibly the best album of the year. Not much else to say.

As much as I enjoy their albums, it doesn't compare to seeing them live. Fortantely this album captures everything that's great about it.

I haven't seen them live, but this makes me really want to. And when they rock the fuck out, I just turn this bugger up and let my ear drums feel the pain.

Great album, yadda yadda. What they said.

I've talked to several people who never really dug MMJ until hearing this. It's a good gateway.
