yeah that one is a doozy...

almost all the live swanky streets he messes up somewhere in the solo

but at the show in new york (knitting factory) he did it flawless

yeah thats what confused me. The Knitting Factory Show was like flawless, but when i watch other live shows there are many mistakes.

i think its because at most of the other live shows when he solos he was either moving around alot or turning something like that

at the factory he was kinda standing still focusing all his powing into the solo

Well, I think part of the swanky street solo is the craziness. I think he's trying to mess it up a little and put a bit of improvisation in it when he plays live - but it usually doesn't work out too well. Liquid Room in '97 it starts out quite nicely and different from the studio version, then sort of goes downhill but picks back up.

all i can say is all three rock. satou is very good at drumming, but his dynamics are more subtle. manabe's guitar solos don't show off insanely like many bands do, and yamanaka's lyrics and voice make my brain explode.
