This is my first ever recording, so go easy on me! After being inspired by sbornemann, I had a Blue Mikey rush shipped to me so I could record this show on short notice. I had never been to the Congress Theater before. It seems like a pretty old venue and the sound wasn't fantastic. It was very echoey (the huge dome at the top of the venue didn't help) and even at the show I couldn't understand quite a bit of what Ray and Robby were saying into their mics. Only when they spoke up could I really hear them. As expected there is some audience noise on this one as well. It was quite the lively crowd and they can be heard singing along several times. All in all, it was a great show and I would recommend catching them if you have the chance.
