That intro (voices inside my head) I searched all over for that version. Cant find. Totally Badass!

This concert had allot of energy coming from the band , allot of the live tracks here are arguably better sounding then the ones in the actual album

[@Auntkekebaby]

I believe that it's Stings demo of the song.
