No offence to their fans but that's just me. Nevertheless, not being one to turn down a challenge, I was more than happy to volunteer for the recording of these guys at the request of several people. My only regret is taking this long to release it as I've been busy working overseas only days after this recording was made! So, what to say about the show? They're consumate professionals. They know what they're doing and how to do it right. Though the volume was somewhat tame, the sound was clear as a bell, with only a slightly aggressive EQ curve being made necessary in the upper-midrange part of the spectrum to help tame some overemphasis from the sound guy. The crowd were reasonably well behaved and all in all, it was a fun night for everyone. The recording was a bit too long for 2 CDs but not justifiably long for 3 CDs and that was mostly due to the long durations of applause between songs. To get that second disc under control, about 2.5 minutes worth of applause needed scrapping and so there was a fair amount of time spent picking the right points in the recording to cut and crossfade accordingly. I tried to keep it as inconspicuous as possible but I'm sure people will still pick that up. My apologies. More importantly though, the songs are all unhindered! Enjoy the recording people and once again, my apologies for the late release of this piece. A few days more and it would have been released in a more timely manner! ...and please, don't sell this bootleg, otherwise you're just plain old scum. That and ... nah, Yes are too nice to inflict pain upon anyone so I'll have to volunteer for the task. Use your imagination as to what I can do to you. |
