The sound quality on this gets a solid A-, some less critical ears might give it an A. I caught the whole set from about two feet from the stage, to the band's right, occasionally moving towards the middle of the room, but not by much. There aren't many people near me, so there isn't a lot of conversation or hooting and clapping. It happens from time to time, but nothing to get annoyed about. It was in a big tent, which can make for a less than perfect recording, but this one's cool. I'm standing between the big JBL speakers and the stage, so elements of both the PA and the stage hit the mics. I included photos, both to give an idea of where I was recording from, and to have some nice pictures to go with it. As for the set - it cooks! I don't know the names of his bandmates, but the keyboard player steals the show, in my opinion. I was really happy that Lurrie did a Sunday afternoon set, as I had to work nights all weekend. It's cool to catch some good music before my soul-crushing night of being too hot in the kitchen.
Don't sell, try not to circulate as lossy. Enjoy!
