Well ... as it was recorded in better quality, why not using it ...

Well, these guys are not exactly my kind of sound ... little too "earthbound"/bluesy in my ears, but at least "70es" enough to catch me and keep me interested and from technical side no question : an excellent concert !
In the end I felt a little too "overtoxicated" (literally - my fault, not theirs :-) ) and had to move a little to the back to sit down for the last 20 minutes, but that did not really change the sound of the recording.

There is constant audience chatter, but nothing really annoying, most of it is quite in the background.

Though the sound of the club in itself is not THAT great, this is a quite fine recording.
I had to do some EQing as usual, just the common, raising heights and adding a little to the bass drum.
+ (as always) a little soundboard-like mastering-compression, but nothing pumping audible.


SORRY, no cover-artwork, but I added some screenshots from my video

Support the artists!
Buy their official releases, merchandises, and especially their concert-tickets !
And if you want to support them most effectivly :
Buy their stuff at concerts directly FROM the artists or via their homepages !!!


Keep it lossless (if possible - This is no holy grail, but it would be nice to keep the quality for all future listeners!)
Trade freely!
DO NOT SELL !
