A LARS M RECORDING
---


Rec. Info:
Sony ECM 719 mic -> Sony PCM D50 (@ WAV 16/44) -> HD -> USB Stick received via Mail -> my HD -> Audacity (edit/remaster) -> WAV 16/44 -> TLH8 -> FLAC -> DIME -> YOUR EARS AND MIND...
Recorded by dear taper brother Lars at app. 1,5 meters stage edge left side. Maybe about 90 people in the audience, not full house as last year. MIke played solo but for a few songs
he invited (?) two guys from the audience to fill in on bass and drum duties. Sounds a bit more like "studied". Anyway, great atmosphgere, lots of sing-a-long which doesn't really
disturb this fine recording. Guitar and vocals are fine in the mix, but there's a short drpout of the right channel at start of the 2nd set, pasted that with the left channel. So it's
mono for about app. 60 seconds and except for a little level adjustment this is "warts and all live".

Another great solo performance from THE ALARM frontman Mike Peters in a small pub in Oslo. As mentioned before this was a full "die-hard fans only" show, as you can hear from the
audience's anticipation. THis show and some before in the UK was played in honor of THE ALARM's probably best known album, "STRENGTH" on the 30th anniversary of its release.
Was it played complete? Maybe, but not song by song, but woven into other classics and some recent new songs. So join in this great performance in springtime Oslo...SB.
