Subject: Very Respectable Audience Recording of a Great Show!
Just a quick review for those of you hesitant to download this: it’s well-worth your time and bandwidth.
While it does suffer slightly as an audience recording (a few close clappers/cheerers/etc.), it does have very good sound–as well as not really having the all-too-common mindless yakkers that seem to proliferate Decemberists audience recordings.
There are a couple of goofed lines/miscues during the show, but that can be easily forgiven as this is the first of the tour. As well as the band’s energy easily surpassing any glitches.
It would be great to see more soundboard/FM shows turn up, but even for Decemberists non-completists, this is an essential recording.
Good work, taper–wish you could have done some of the West Coast shows!
