Disco de Descendents: “Liveage”

Let me start this review by saying that almost without exception,I hate live albums.For me,live albums are little more than a band's excuse to milk the public for money,not to mention the arrogance of the group in question's assumption that every schmuck with ten extra dollars would go right out and plop it down for their slab o'plastic.Then'there's the feedback,onstage mistakes,and usual stupidity of people in a group.That didn't happen with the Descendents Liveage album.This is as close as one could possibly get to perfection without actually having been there yourself.In fact,in a rare occurrence,the Descendents play almost all of the songs I would have asked them to play had I selected the songs.Yes,a few songs aren't on the album,but MAN,what a setlist."Silly Girl,"perfectly played by Egerton,to me sounds even better live than it did on the original album,and my personal favorites "Clean Sheets"and Pervert"are absolutely excellent.And in this case,the audience participation actually added to the performance,not detracted from it,especially the guy that shouted "I have"during "All-O-Gistics."Well done gents,well done indeed.Folks,buy this album..You will NOT be disappointed.

I'm not usually fond of any live albums. The Descendents, with their energetic on-stage performances, tweak their songs just enough to differ from their studios recordings. Not enough tweakage to ruin an excellent song though. This album, as well as Hallraker, define the Descendents as an excellent band who truely love performing. I hope they eventually put out a Live Video.

i knew i had to buy this because...well, it's Descendents! but seriously, this was worth every cent, and it arrived in perfect condition! you have no reason not to buy this!

If there is one album you need from the Descendents, it's Livage. I wore out this cassette back in highschool ('88-'92), repurchased the cassette in college and have since then picked it up on CD.

This album has such a great vibe. It's fast, upbeat, funny and has tons of great tracks. A much better album than Hallraker.

Do yourself a favor...grab a tall cup of coffee and pop in this disc. You won't be disappointed!

Fast, loud... Descendents! Hear the same musics, but live! Better then the studios ones!
