Counting Crows offer free concert download

Counting Crows - Got It Live If Ya Want It

I’m on the Counting Crows email list, so I’m not quite sure how I missed this, but the Counting Crows have partnered with LiveDownloads.Com to launch an official concert download site.

To celebrate the launch of LiveCountingCrows.Com, the band are offering a free download (for the first 10,000 fans) of their Charlotte, NC concert, recorded only a few days ago on July 28th. The set is shorter than a normal Counting Crows show, because the band are currently in the midst of a U.S. summer tour, co-headlining with Maroon 5.

There are some good nuggets though, including “Up All Night,” and a tasty extended rendition of “A Murder of One.”

Counting Crows – Angels of the Silences (live)

The following night adds personal favorites “Recovering The Satellites” and “Goodnight LA.” Counting Crows setlists vary from night to night, so expect variety and additional rarities. Fans have the option to purchase individual tracks, making it easy to download one show, and additional single tracks to make your own personal live best-of.

Personally, I’ll be waiting for “Perfect Blue Buildings” (from August and Everything After) to pop up. I nearly leapt onto the field last summer when the band started playing it during their Eastlake, OH stop at Classic Park (setlist and review.)

During their tour that summer with Live and Collective Soul, the band previewed material from their new album, unreleased at the time, and also pulled out quite a few songs like that one, that had not been performed ina long time.

Regular downloads will be priced at $9.99 for MP3 downloads, and $12.99 for higher quality FLAC downloads. CDs are also available.

I’m no stranger to LiveDownloads.Com, having acquired previous shows from The Tragically Hip (review,) and Barenaked Ladies.

LiveDownloads also has shows available from (among others) the recent Crowded House reunion tour, and the current Black Crowes tour.

Speaking of The Black Crowes, I’m noticing that they have made some cool older shows from 1996 available, including a Cleveland date, that I’m fairly sure my buddy Matt was in attendance for (and subsequently raving about.)

Here is the complete setlist for the Counting Crows free download.
