BTE in New Orleans
Wow, everybody knew every word to every song. Man, anybody who has seen BTE live in concert at either HOB or Tipitina's knows they put on a GREAT show. Lots of hot LSU girls too! .


wonderful band that does not get enough recognition


I think they were unfairly tagged as an alternative group when they first came out with the hit single "Good". Better Than Ezra is good on record and unbelievable as a live act. This is a band that cannot be categorized in any manner.

There are 3 things that make this band a great live act;

1) The songwriting is very earnest and personable;

2) The band plays with a lot of energy. It seems as though they are more excited to be playing then for you to be listening and

3) Singer Kevin's Griffin's interaction with the audience.

Because you cannot pigeonhole them into any type of music, their live show offers a wide, a mine a real wide variety of music. They rock out, they do a little rap, they do tender ballads, they do extended jams, they noodle on their instruments.

This cd is a decent representative of their live act but it is no substitute. They in betweeen song banter, as well as when they (out of nowhere) go into cover songs are integral parts of a live Better Than Ezra show.

"Good", "King of New Orleans", "Extraordinary", and "Desperately Wanting" are songs that really come alive on the live CD.

If you ever get a chance, do see this band live especially in a small venue. They are the most likeable band around

As another reviewed said, they are ridiculously underrated!.


BTE--Most Under-Rated Band in America
If you can't see them in person, this is the next best thing. This CD is an awesome, concert-like experience. .


BTE rocks!
Live At The House Of Blues New Orleans is a great set from a great band!.


Never a disappointment!
I purchased the DVD and the CD and both are worth every penny. I have been waiting for Ezra to release a live album, and I'm thrilled. While no recording can entirely capture the "live show" experience this is a noble effort. I would recommend it to anyone Ezralites and newbies alike.
