Damo did Baby Sister somewhere...weell, a lot of somewheres. But I have a version that gives me chills. And, I couldn't even tell ya where it's from...sorry.

But, that does make me remember how frikkin' talented he is.

we had a similar thread not so long ago http://eskimofriends.com/forum/showthread.php?t=8871

anyway, mine is the philly gig in 2003 and the one at the gypsy tea room the same year

Blackcanvas · 08-04-2005, 10:48 AM

ah, but this is the greatest single track! Not entire show!
com on, more! more!

kiddrinkingfire · 08-05-2005, 01:12 PM

Any time he does 'When Doves Cry/Babe I'm Gonna Leave You/Glory Box' is special, but the version from Paris on 30th June 2005 is THE best Damo live thing ever ever EVER.

He starts with the build up, that I've heard him use on I Remember, and then just is messing around with his voice, lots of Damo created noise. Then he sort of moans 'Cos I'm so tired' through the distortion. Then goes into Glory Box. It is amazing.

^ anybody willing to share that with me???

killian.brennan@gmail.com iv got lots of song i can swap for

cprolsen · 08-05-2005, 01:53 PM

For me it's anytime he plays Tounge...that is just an amazing song live. The April 11th 2004 (which of course I was at) it was really amazing because he played it and the entire band was "unplugged" so to speak.

cneill · 08-15-2005, 03:39 AM

The Beacon Theatre in NYC. I think it was March 5 (or was it May 3) 2004. That one never gets old. Good intensity, good jams, good talks, damn good music. Also the bonnaroo show (but my memory of it is better than the recording).

mestonf · 08-15-2005, 08:12 AM

yeah i would go with the beacon theatre gig,though i do love listening and watching the StLukes gig last year - thats certainly got a great edge to it but i suppose thats just because it was recorded properly

Young Siward · 08-17-2005, 12:44 AM

Hey all,

I Remember at the St. Lukes Gig became my psyching up song (of all things) before my tennis matches!! Seemed to work because I ended up winning the tournament!!!

I'll say that, but Woman Like a Man from the same show was excellent as well.

Apart from the BBC Sessions and Headliners, I haven't heard huge amounts of live Damo. The weird reggae version of Volcano at last years Glasto was strangely good though....

Miss ARETHA FRANKLIN "Live at the Fillmore West" circa 1968 singing "DR FEELGOOD"
REE was great! WOW!!!!!

matheusdibo · 08-25-2005, 08:23 PM

The version of "Face" where he sings Prince's "Kiss". A-MA-ZING!

**jebus** · 08-25-2005, 09:53 PM

Woman like a Man was the song that got me hooked,
and the first time I heard it live I was just blown away,
so id prob vote that as my fav from temple bar gig Sept2004

walker · 08-30-2005, 08:58 PM

I agree with Cille, the Philly Gig was sure a spectacle!

flyaway · 08-31-2005, 12:19 AM

I Remember from Paris...Not sure which show, but It's 9 minutes of pure musical orgasm. Reaching blinding extremes and thanks to Lisa's ghostly vocals at the end, I am now in no doubt that she is an angel. (And the rest of the band have been especially blessed by God! :P )

OrangeKnickers · 09-01-2005, 06:50 AM

Brooklyn 12 - 8 - 03. my first damien show, an AMAZING boot, and one of the best show's i've ever seen. LOVE it, listen to it multiple times a week.

brb8y215 · 09-01-2005, 07:09 AM

i would have to say that I Remember seems to be the most popular live song. Anyone think they could share that with me, my email i BBeatty215@yahoo.com if you can thanks

jenn fox · 09-01-2005, 11:25 PM

I don't know if it's my favorite exactly, but when he jammed onstage with herbie hancock at the end of his show at the troubadour he went pretty crazy, was scattin' and everything! And it went on for about 14 minutes, it was mighty wicked, and Damien really really got into it and everyone in the band looked shocked like he just completely let go and surprised us all.

Liam 780 · 09-03-2005, 12:00 AM

The greatest song he ever sang live was either women like a man, delicate, the professor or i remember at the london palladium. one of the best live acts ive ever seen.
