The Return of the Aimee Mann Christmas Show
The Wilbur Theatre - Boston, MA
2014-12-09 (Tuesday, December 9, 2014 a miserable rainy day in Boston)
AT943 cardioid (3 wire) > Church Audio 9100 > Sony PCM-M10 (24/44.1; dithered to 16/44.1 for this torrent)
2nd row mezzanine, 4 seats off dead center

Interesting theme this go round. Aimee and Ted are crime solvers, rockin' and rollin' and solvin' murders, and the backstage Santa is murdered.
However, Aimee does not want to solve any more murders and is insistent on having a festive Christmas show.
Mayhem ensues. Songs are sung.
Very nice recording. Check out my other Aimee Mann Christmas show recordings here on DIME. Fun times!!
