Great show at Hudson Gardens. This is an outdoor venue, and a decent place to see a show. The biggest drawback is a lot of people were there for the social aspect, rather than the music (except for "Life's Been Good"). This resulted in higher than usual background talking, but is mainly apparent between songs and during some of the softer parts of songs. Also, security seemed to be swarming around my area early in the show, so a couple of times during the first two songs I bumped the mics while trying to conceal them, which can be heard. Other than that, I think the recording turned out real well, but you can check for yourself in the samples. I had hoped to video the show as well, but due to the security issue I was focused on preserving the audio recording.
