Here is what Galen at http://www.collectiveunconscious.org/97pughkeepsie0301B.html says:

Notes / Galen 2002: Wow. Great, I mean great recording. I am not positive nor do I have really any real proof other than what I hear but I suspect that the same taper of the 11.23.96 show (few others as well) is the same taper as this one.
This was most likely taped front of stack as well - CSBs seem to perform supremely under such stress. The sound is very, very clear & I'm sure someone somewhere has said that this recording is sound-board; as it sounds that good.
Crowd noise is almost completely lacking - which is a good thing. The performance, well, what can you say? Tool seems to be riding high on a very nice selling album & are playing to packed venues all over the world.
They should be playing in top form & they are. In America, rabid fans mosh to the music as college-fans record them. I only hope the taper of this show was utilizing ear-plugs; being FOS.
Seriously, this is one show that every Tool fan should enjoy. At this point, this is the closest recording to a 1997 SBD that is available.
