concert info:
here's some work for you to do!!!
I never was into Bert Jansch at all, but I grabbed me a ticket as I thought: hey, it's Robert Plant in the line-up, so: why not.
I have no idea who was on stage the whole evening through, but I'm sure someone can help me out with all the infos you need about this evening.

I came a minute too late into the hall when the beginning was just announced, but I was not prepared for that quick start,
so I first had to find my place, grab the equipment, start recording with the included mics, search my extern mics and put them on their usual place,
so there's some crappy noises at the first few minutes, but then it starts to get much better. The level in the first part of this event was a bit too high
but it still sounds great. Then in the second part I reduced the level a bit too much.
I would say: this was "not my evening" in recording.
The sound in the hall was superb, the host was really funny, the music was ...hmmm.... folky, jazzy and so on.

I put the splits between the songs and also between some talking as I thought it could be right, but forgive me all the faults about this (recording-)evening

But as a bonus you get a special gimmick: the sound of the lift in that hall - listen to it, it's somehow funny!!
