Note about the show:
Eric didn't played 2 songs respect the other past dates, especially the missing of the encore Sunshine of your love is strange. Eric leave the stage without a "good night", without the classic embrace with the band. Perhaps the Birmingham's public was too cold?!
Anyway, I've flown (first time ever) from Italy to England only for you, Eric, and I love you as always!
Great fiery version of Got to getter better, nice solo on Tell the truth, Sheriff e Badge well played, with tasty solos.

Note about the recording:
Occasionally I moved the mics for some micro-seconds, so in the post production I copy the "good and clean" channel into the bad one.
I assure this don't affect the quality of the recording, which to my ears is of excellent quality.

Comments about the sound quality are appreciated.
