[edit] About this Album

During the 2004 Spine On The Hiway Tour, TMBG started the practice of writing a song specifically for each venue they performed in. After the conclusion of the tour, these songs were compiled and made available at the TMBG Download Store in MP3 format.

[edit] Notes

  • For other live recordings culled from the Spine On the Hiway Tour, see The Spine Hits The Road and Almanac.
  • A preview of Albany was made available via TMBG's Free MP3 service several weeks before the album itself was released. The ID3 tag information included on this file led many to incorrectly believe that the title of the album would be Venue Vidi Vici.
