Notes: Beautiful day/night for the festival. Wasn't planning to tape, so had no choice but to use iPhone when the spirit struck me.
Seat location was perfect - right in front of right speaker stack, a little talking behind me early on, then surrounding seats emptied
out a bit and all was quiet (until just prior to These Days, when someone had the gall to try to move to a vacated seat behind me
and in front of a couple that was offended by the interloper and his effect on their view - you'll hear a few choice words right before
the music starts and some additional talking during this song). I was tempted to cut out the "No, THANK YOU Jackson!" guy, but
he shows up only between a couple of songs, and adds a certain amusement value.
So while the technology was a low as you can get micophone wise, the recording is pretty good given the technology. May not sound
great on a good home system, but should do just fine in the car.
