- Release Notes ------------------------------------------------------------- -



Here's the first live cd ever from this great rock/indie band. They got the

deluxe dvd treatment like thrice, so you should really buy it. There's tons

of pictures etc in the lyric sheet too and 5 extra download tracks.



"A Positive Rage is a double disc package featuring a documentary on DVD and

The Hold Steady's first-ever live album. It captures the excitement and high

spirits of both the band and their fans in the days surrounding the release

of their third full-length, Boys ands Girls in America, and ensuing world

tour in 2006.



The 53-minute documentary begins with The Hold Steady’s first ever London

performances with never-before-seen live footage, back stage interviews with

the band members, fan commentary and the original, raw audio. Cameras follow

the band as they return to the US for a 24-date tour that culminates on

screen with an especially poignant performance at First Avenue in

Minneapolis.



The live album was recorded on October 31, 2007 and includes seventeen songs

that Craig Finn, Tad Kubler, Galen Polivka, Franz Nicolay, and Bobby Drake

performed on the second of their two-night sold-out stand at the Metro in

Chicago. The enhanced album will also feature five bonus studio tracks: “Ask

Her For Adderall,” “Cheyenne Sunrise,” “Two Handed Handshake,” and the

previously unreleased tracks “Spectres” and “40 Bucks.”



The booklet features personal photos and the band’s memories of the tour.



CD contains a link to download an additional 5 bonus tracks."
