Comments:

Some background chatter, not nearly as bad as actually at the show. The tapers section was way back under the balcony, even with the focus of the shotguns you can hear a little of the characteristic "boxy" sound you always get when you are back under an overhanging balcony. Not the stellar recording one would always like to get at a show like this, but definitely a listenable recording, and considering the ambient conditions I was reasonably happy with it.

Enjoy! RobertNC and bish - Team GangstaLean Productions.
