vanillag NOTES:  
--opening for Jerry Joseph
--The audience called for Bret to do one more tune & he performed "Hallelujah" off the stage & walking around in the crowd 
with them...I believe that I must have spun the stage mics to be facing him at this point to capture it.  For this portion the 
recording is the schoeps stage mics only as the sbd was rightfully muted.  I jacked up the levels here accordingly (a 
whopping 14db!!), but it's still a tad distant.  You'll hear ambient things during this like the front door of the place opening & 
closing, etc.  It is what it is...you can hear the tune, though.  At one point he walks back up to the stage & is in front of the 
mics & you can hear him loud & clear (you will know)...I have tempered that section as well to be in control.  I also 
WAVhammered the applause at the end of the tune so the jacked up volume there will not destroy anyone's ears.  
--Something was clicking in Bret's amp on the left side of the stage that the left stage mic picks up.  Not sure what it was, 
but it's audible when he does his percussive hits on his strings (it may be part of his sound, not sure).  I could probably 
eliminate all of this cleanly, but I'm not going to as it would take months since each one would have to be targeted & fixed.  
Not especially bad or anything.  Enjoy.
