Here's my obligatory release from this leg of the tour. Time to recap, mix, and relax after the tour.

First show of the US leg. Good solid show, although the leg would kick into a higher gear later on. Seat hopped to a nice spot, which did my good for most of the show. Weather was good thankfully.

A bit more drums than I usually like, but that's what was coming through the cans. Did the best I could with mixing but can only do so much. Not my best sounding mix, but pretty solid overall in my book. Did some tricks to minimize the click, which helped. There's no helping the counts though, just get used to them after a while.

U2 IEMs are not for everyone. If you can't stand the clicks/counts...then rock out to the audience sources. There's two very nifty sources out there.

I left the stereo imaging the way it is to reflect my view from behind the stage. Usually I flip it, but left it this time.

Please don't sell this recording in any way - no cash for blanks, 2:1s, or any other form of "getting paid for your time". Just share it freely.

If you're going to destroy the sound of some ultra-spiffy high-end rigs by encoding and spreading them via poorly encoded mp3's, please keep them on your own computer and not dilute the tradepool. This means you!

Please do not attempt to remaster/remix this recording and spread it around. There is little to no point of trying to compete with the original processing. It just creates problems with conflicting effects and processing errors. If you need to re-eq it for your own listening pleasure, that's fine, just don't spread it around. For the love of god, don't take mix this with an audience source and release it. There's enough ambiance in it. I initially aligned in an audience source, but kept lowering it, until I finally just scrapped it.

Also, please don't torrent on other sites without at least dropping me a line and asking. I may want to just torrent it there myself.

Enjoy folks!
