LIVETRAX 23 & 24 are the main culprits. I can kinda understand the opening track of the concert / album having Dave talk before the song, but don't like it. the worst example of this is 'Christmas Song' on LIVETRAX 23. there is 7 minutes of Dave talking at the beginning of the track before the song starts.
20 years ago I use to download all kinds of DaveSpeak on Napster / Limewire / Bearshare / Morphesus cause there was a mystique to it in 2000 and the stories by Dave were separate tracks from the songs.
anyways what do you guys prefer....Live at Luther College where there is no DaveSpeak, LIVETRAX where its at the start?

To me, all DaveSpeak should appear as a separate track (unless he's talking over the music), so you can build a playlist without it if you want.
I would think that doing this is obvious, but neither DMB nor Pearl Jam do it on their live releases ("I'm sure the owner of this CD wants to hear Eddie Vedder talk about a guy sawing off his arm with a knife and Bush chopping off his own head whenever he hears this version of Wishlist!")
