The sound quality on this one gets an A-. While the sound at this later show was likely a little better than the daytime show, there were a lot more people, and it was right on the windy water, so those two factors are evident. The show was on the patio behind a museum, right on Boston Harbor. That's why you can hear frequent boats, as well as planes taking off and landing. It was a cool setup for a show, though, with the blue sky and ocean behind them, and the museum made beer and wine available, so relaxing was easy. I sat in front of the band through both sets, though I had children in front of me for the second set, so it's a little more distant and chatty sounding. For some reason, the loudness adaption boosted the hell out of the first set, but had a quieter effect during set 2. So, they are somewhat different in volume, but quite listenable just the same. Also, as I was sitting on the floor, you can hear many high heels clunk on by - not the worst sound in the world! I also filmed this, but I used Hi8 tape, and my dvd recorder has died, it seems. I will make it available as soon as I can.

Enjoy - don't sell, don't trade as lossy.
