Sage Francis toured with Gruvis Malt in 2003 on The Live Band Dead Poet Tour, and many of those tracks were recorded off of the sound board, a method which often neglects bass and percussion in order to add some low end to the recordings. Additional layers of bass were added on tracks 9, 11, and 13.

The Gimme Fund was put together by Sage Francis for the Fuck Clear Channel Tour 04. They are mis-credited as The Gumme Fund at places in the liner notes.

The Sol.Illaquists Of Sound recorded with Sage Francis in 2005. Track 21 is a mishmash of live audio from various shows and studio fill-ins.

2: Recorded at the Call in Providence, RI.
7: Live in Fort Collins.
14: From Rock the Bells
17: Live in Sioux Falls

Packaged in a cardstock gatefold sleeve.
