That's the chapter that tells the Story. The 10 extra, five are songs recorded Live from two sold-out shows at Red Rocks in Colorado, which is two of the most incredible nights Of my career, and I think the band and The whole organization would probably second that. It was just incredible. Yeah, that venue is amazing. In itself. Mm-hmm. And I do feel like part of the Red Rocks experience is the visible part. But I also feel like when I listen back To the You know, I didn't know that they Were We have a board recording every night. Mm-hmm. Board mix. We can go back and listen. If something's not jeehawing right, we can go back And listen and figure out what it is.
