Notes: The first night of the run and the only one for me on the floor. Obviously a different taper experience than the comforts of 1st row loge. But the overall amount of audience chatter and clapping is not too bad all things considered. Most significantly, the quality of the captured audio is by far the best of the 3 nights. Seems to be a sweet spot for audio where I was standing. Without any fanfare or even an announcement during the show, the album "True Sadness" was played in order from start to finish. I don't think many in the audience even realized it. At one point Seth asked "Can anybody guess what the next song is?" and people just started shouting random song names.
