Live At The House Of Blues

Recorded at the House of Blues in Los Angeles at the launch for the power pop label, Smile Records and the band's last studio album on Sept. 25, 2001. I've at the House of Blues captures a 70-minute set bristling with urgency and undeniable hooks. In his liner notes, Smile Records President Tony Valenziano writes, "I was happy and thankful we got to do that night just two weeks after we had been attacked. The event shaped all of us in different ways but all these years later I can still recall, especially when I listen to the concert, how that night buzzed - not just for the show that was being put on, but more because we were all in accord about being strong and united... we were all in this together." Live at the House of Blues features The Knack's founding trio of Fieger, Averre, and bassist Prescott Niles, alongside drummer Dave Henderson. Henderson also appears on the band's Normal as the Next Guy and Live from the Rock N Roll Fun House albums.
