Review:
Sometimes, surviving in a ruthless world requires a boot manufacturer to release previously released material. This venue came out a few months earlier under the title Tampa Dee. This digipak is nice enough, though not incredible. The green & maroon color scheme is used extensively and helps to create the fair, but somewhat monotonous aesthetic. The full color images of Dylan on the inside of the package are nice. They chronicle a decade of one of the ultimate survivors of a ruthless world. One show highlight, as has been with several shows in 2002, is the powerful Blowin' In The Wind, with  magnificent, soaring harmony vocals. A show surprise was Dickie Betts bringing out his famous Les Paul and playing an extended solo on RDW that brought down the house. Bonus tracks are nicely chosen, but unnecessary on such a jam packed disc.
