This tape was so bad I'd given up on it several times but I kept coming back to it because the set list was so great. The Boys started the show over an hour late and there must not have been a soundcheck because you can hear them complain about the monitors during the show. I did a fair amount of EQ, mostly reducing the range between 100 and 600 HZ because the original tape was so bass saturated you couldn't hear much of anything else. The end result is somewhere between "for completists only" and "average."
