Evan Dando - Excuse Me Mister Live Acoustic Performance at Brattle Theatre

Date: October 18, 2000

On October 18, 2000, Evan Dando delivered an acoustic live performance at the Brattle Theatre in Cambridge, Massachusetts. At this stage in his career, Dando had recently released 'The Lemonheads' in 1996, which was a self-titled work that redefined the band's sound, leaning more into alternative rock and power pop influences. The album featured the hit 'It’s a Shame About Ray,' showcasing Dando’s unique vocal style and songwriting prowess. Interestingly, while this performance captures his emotive vocal delivery and intimate guitar work, it also reflects the band's ongoing evolution after experiencing a hiatus in 1997. It's a fascinating snapshot that highlights Dando's artistry in a solo setting, standing in contrast to the band's more polished studio recordings.
