Bridge School Series: #6 – October 30, 1999

Hey folks, it’s the end of another month which means we owe you all another show from the Bridge School Series. Since we’re in chronological order here, we start with the band’s penultimate show of the decade. In this episode we talk about how successful the year 1999 was for them even without being on tour and that’s all due to the rise of Last Kiss’ popularity. That as well as another late 90’s era cover song Soldier of Love are both played in this one.

Also, we get the first ever appearance of a Binaural song live with the debut of Thin Air. We’ll talk about what the band was doing to transition into 2000 and a brand new album, the first featuring Matt Cameron.

Two things we forgot to mention, I don’t think we picked a Bridge School moment (for me it’s Soldier of Love) and also the fan club single Driftin was written on Ed’s plane ticket on the flight home from this show. Strangest Tribe also written this year and released on the same single.
