Widespread Panic - 'Action Man' Live Performance at Classic Center

Venue: Classic Center Location: Athens, GA, United States Date: June 11, 2002

Widespread Panic had quite a notable moment in their career surrounding the live recording of "Action Man" on June 11, 2002. This performance was part of their album, *Live in the Classic City*, which was released on that very same day. It holds a special significance as the band's third live album, showcasing not only their musical prowess but also their electrifying connection with the audience at the Classic Center in Athens, where they have deep roots. Interestingly, this particular show came right after they released *Don't Tell the Band*, their studio album from 2000, and it captured the band in their element, thriving on the improvisational spirit that defines their live performances. You can really hear that synergy in the recording—it's a testament to their commitment to creating an engaging experience for fans. Plus, being in Athens, where they formed, added an extra layer of nostalgia and emotion to the event. What a moment to celebrate their journey!
