First off, a big thanks to Walter for writing this book! I got the Kindle edition a couple days ago and have been really digging it so far. The tours from 1997 and 1998 are my favorites, and the author does a good job of explaining the style the band was playing at that time, but more importantly he touches on HOW they got there from their 1995-96 style.

If you're thinking of getting this book, I would say that you need to either a) be VERY familiar with 1997 or b) be listening to the shows/songs he describes as you read or immediately before you read. Walter does a great job of zeroing in on important phases/changes/climaxes/etc. in each song, but as a jam might go on for 15+ minutes, these specific descriptions can get a little long. Better if you can hear it as he describes it, or just listen to a track and then read what he has to say about it. (Note: this is not a complaint, just a suggestion for those not as versed in 1997 as the author [which should be everyone (otherwise, go write your own book, we'd like to read that, too)].)

My one and only complaint (and this really only applies to the Kindle version) is that there's no table of contents or otherwise any links to the "chapters" on each show/song, and those would be very useful to have. After reading the whole thing, I'd love to be able to skim that list, pick a show/song I haven't dusted off in a bit, and then do some listening and re-reading. Is there any way to push an "update" of sorts and add something like that in?

Anyway, awesome job again! I think I'll be checking out The Allwords Catalogue when I'm done with this one.
