Rec. Info:
OKM2R -> Zoom H2n (@ WAV 16/44) -> SDcard -> HD -> Audacity (edit/volume boost+balance only) -> WAV 16/44 -> TLH8 -> FLAC -> DIME -> YOUR EARS AND MIND...
Recorded by yours truly at second/third row dead center. A bunch of annoying clapping and some chatters are audible. Also I should note that Cyril's vocals were quite low in
the mix at the start of this show, but that settled nicely after the first three songs. Bass and drums and the guitars are well up in the mix. A few nice pics are included as well.

Spacebandit notes...on BURG HERZBERG 2015...

My 20th anniversary at the HOLY MOUNTAIN couldn't go wrong long before. During last winter time my dear taping brother Lars from Oslo decided to join in the fun. What's been "just" a
"tape connection" which was seeded on DIME developed into a real fine friendship during the holy days. If there's a proof that DIME connects people from other countries, which would
probably never met, than this might be it. So...more details...

HOLY MOUNTAIN 2015

Audience: 12500+
Ticket Fee: Very Early Birds (80 Euros)
Weather: only one strong rainshower at early thursday, moderate daylight 20+ then on sat/sun up to 30+, fucking cold nights...(but we're used to that)
Most likely the best weather conditions at HOLY MOUNTAIN ever! Dust instead of Mud!
Catering: about ten really good food booths ranging from african over indian to local food. Gorgeous! Nice prices, too.
Drinking: no hard stuff, usually bad beer, but if you knew, there were some booths selling "Pilgrims Stuff", which was tasty at 3.50 Euros. Plus 3 Euros Return.
That was a downer as I really liked it (in the past) when the kiddies "steal" my cup for 1 Euro return. I wouldn't have bothered about...

Special thanks to...
The Burg Herzberg Organzing crew, helpers, lightning and sound magicians, the many cool people that I met and had a real nice talk, the cool neighbours at our campsite in the middle
of nowhere, but "deep from the heart" thanks to the real nice people who shared the "camp" with me, my brother Martin, sister-in-law Martina, Olaf and Lola, the "Wanderer" Klaus,
the mighty great one-man-band Martin from Bochum (Stoppok songs always work!), the cool tapers I met first time like Gunnar or Greener, and, of course to my norwegian friend Lars.
Good shows, perfect weather, great time..indeed. All worth doing it 20 years so far...

Here's my capture of one of the "headliners" from this year's lovely Burg Herzberg Festival. Somehow I did not really enjoy this too much, as it was - for my taste - way too funky
New Orleans stuff and too less southern boogie rock. Maybe due to the departure of Mike Zito and Devon Allman their music went even more straight on the one-man-show of Cyril Neville.
Oh, not that it was bad, but I really missed a bit more texican style rhythm and blues from Mr. Vaughan and somehow some songs sounded alike. On the positive side: This rhythm section
is just simply amazing! And, of course, the icing on a cake was a perfectly timed "Fire on the mountain" by the good ol' Grateful Dead in blazing summer sun at the HOLY MOUNTAIN.
Anyway, I still can't figure out if I love this or not. You'd better do for yourself, so let's jump straight into the show...SB.
