Affable singer-songwriter Rhett Miller does an acoustic live set of his favorite songs, mostly solo. After the live material comes some studio cuts, including another version of "Wave of Mutilation" with Joey Santiago. There's nothing earth-shaking here, and the songs aren't exactly transformed and made his own, but everyone has a lot of fun. Favorite tracks: "Homeward Bound," "The Birth of the True" (a song I'd never heard), "Cynthia Mask" (with Jon Brion on drums).
