Toronto 1996

One of the first shows after the release of First Band On The Moon, this particular soundboard recording had the privilege to be issued as a bootleg CD called Weekend Warriors. Unfortunately this is certainly not the best concert the Cardigans gave, as it includes several bum notes and/or technical problems. Still, in the same way it's good to hear the Beatles butchering Paperback Writer live, it's good to hear than even great musicians are human and therefore can make mistakes... And you get to hear a great live version of Sabbath Bloody Sabbath, the Cardigans' first Black Sabbath cover, but also Nina's skeptical introduction to Lovefool : "This is what in the industry they call a single, and it's supposed to be a good song, that's what they say", as if she already felt that this song was going to be both a blessing and a curse for them...
