Cheap Trick
2023-07-16
Chicago, IL
Metro

Support band: Brokeback (also recorded)

Master recording from 15 feet back, just left of center.

Sure MV88 Mic - iPod Touch/Motiv-Audio app (24/48) -
ProTools (mastered/EQ/Widen) - SoundForge (Splits, fades, FLAC).

Sound quality is very good - I'd rate it a A-. Great sound out front
and not much talking around me. There is a spot at the end of Downed
where my rig inexplicably red-lined for about 10 seconds, but thankfully
it's only for a moment during the end of the song and not too distracting
for long. Otherwise it's a pretty clean and very listenable recording.

This was the Metro's 40th Anniversary show, and a rare club show for Cheap
Trick. They'd played a shorter set at a private benefit at the Metro the night
before. The band was in great form, probably the best post-Covid set I've
seen from them. They were smiling and having fun, energetic and tight. It
was an epic (for them) 1 hour 45 minute set.
