Tig Notaro chronology

Live [liv, verb] is the second live [līv, adj.] album by comedian Tig Notaro. It is a deeply personal set performed just four days after Tig was diagnosed with stage two breast cancer. The album was first released by Louis C.K. on his website in 2012 by download only.[1] It was the first release that C.K. had on his website that was not one of his own works. The album is no longer on his site, but it has a link to iTunes.[2] The audio of the album was originally recorded at Notaro's regular monthly stand-up show Tig Has Friends at Largo for an episode of the radio show This American Life. Notaro did not want to put out the album at first, but C.K. convinced her to release it.

Deluxe edition

Secretly Canadian released the physical version of the album the next year on double-CD, download and a limited picture-disc vinyl as a Deluxe Edition.[3] The Deluxe Edition bonus audio was originally recorded for The Moth radio show.

gollark: `/click/abcde` is more of an intended but super-seeeeecret thing you're probably not meant to use.
