This is a Matrix of two different AU recordings. One recording
from the front row off to Warren's left(me), and the other recording 
on superior gear from the "sweet spot"(Z-Man).
Thanks very much to Z-man for allowing his source to be used
for this project. Based on the results, I'd say we make a 
great team.

Source #1(Z-Man) Schoeps CCM4V'S(din)>Lunatec V2>Sound Devices 722 (24/48)
location: FOB/LOC/DFC/KFC/ZFC/AARP Back of the Pit 6' High 1st Set, 7' High 
2nd Set DSP: Sound Devices 722>Sound Forge 7.0>CD Wave>flac(16)

Combined with

Source #2(arcme262) AT833's>Battery Box w/Bass Roll-off>Tascam DR-1(44.1)

Using Audacity to combine, and Nero Wave Editor for final volume and 
tracking.

This show was a unreal five-dollar bargain. I hadn't seen Mule since 2001, 
having been disappointed by the permanent addition of a keyboardist, and 
just missing the old sound too much not to be making comparisons. On this night 
I went primarily to check out the Mule and see what they were about in 2008. 
Also, I figured that if I were able to get a position so that I could make 
a super guitar-heavy recording, that we could have a really cool sounding 
Matrix. It was nice to hear that Warren still cranks the amps up. I did end
up getting a bit more sound from the PA than I expected. My recording has a
lot of the Guitar straight from Warren's amps, as well as a nice amount of 
Matt's kit direct from the stage, mixed with some PA from above me.
I'm including a link to a sample of the entire Mr. Man, the first 
song of the night. Find it in the "comments" down below.
