Ok so before you get excited, no this isn't technically Ariel live. This is the instrumental backing track that Ariel used to perform live--singing and playing instruments over. This is a tape of instrumentals, specifically used for a 2003 show at the Troubadour in S̶i̶l̶v̶e̶r̶l̶a̶k̶e̶,̶ ̶C̶A̶.* Ariel seems like he was very proud of this show, and WOW can I say what a fantastic set it is??? Lovesong, Grey Sunset AND the Worn Copy songs??? Damn, man.
Also, this is where the oddities sodomies west coast CD gets its Frontman/For Kate I Wait, which is probably why it calls Kate an instrumental (even though it has vocals). I'm like 90% sure this is also where the Genius EP gets Be Good, but I have no evidence for that.
These instrumentals were used as basis for a lot of the remasters.
