Comments: Very little close crowd noise if any, nice strong tape. PA seemed maybe a little
less clean than previous tours, or maybe it was the acoustics on the floor at Wachovia. Just
seemed like the sound was on the verge of breaking up a little bit at times, particularly the
vocal. Still a nice strong capture of a great show, the band's energy was insane. IWF and
Electric Co set the place on fire. Bruce Springsteen makes a surprise appearance for People
Get Ready.
My only Vertigo tour show. Frankly I didnt think alot of HTDAAB was up to par, so I only got
tickets to 1 show. In hindsight I wish I saw a couple more leg 3 shows, since the band really
hit their stride and put on some amazing shows in the fall.
Thanks for sharing. I'm curious to see if it's a different recording to the one we have. For the moment I've added your link to the show page and I'll mirror it tomorrow in Mega.
EDIT. Just checked. It sounds similar but it's not the same recording. This one is louder and crispier and also has more echo and ambience whereas the old one we have, with unknown taper and lineage, sounds a bit more flat and "enclosed", it has less of an arena feeling. It's great to have this alternative source.
