Notes:
I've nicknamed this recording as "My First Sony", because that's what it is. I had bought the Sony PCM M-10 recorder a few days before, as a replacement for the iRiver which was getting old. And before sailing off to see Godspeed You! Black Emperor a bunch of times a couple of days later, I needed one show to try it out (check the LMA at https://archive.org/details/GodspeedYouBlackEmperor for those sets if you've missed them). After much deliberation of which show to attend, I choose to go to see Suuns even though I didn't really know them. But on such short notice there weren't that many other options either. And I didn't regret it.
The recording came out very fine. The levels were perfect. There are however a couple of small drop-outs during the first two songs, where I was checking if the levels were all-right on the display of the Sony. And there's a larger segment of about one minute during the first track where the cable must have been slightly detached. Instead of fading in the recording after all this, I decided to leave it all in and offer you the complete capture.
For a headlining gig, without support act, the duration of the set was quite short, only a short bit past the hour. But it was a very entertaining show anyway.
The year is indeed 2013, this has been shelved for over a year. I had almost seen them again this year though, on the Eindhoven Psych Lab festival in June. But I fell asleep on my couch while taking a short break for dinner and a rest for the ears ....
Please let me know if I messed up the setlist and/or the tracking. Like I said, I'm not familiar with this band and based it on another show I downloaded from Dime (Bristol 2013-05-18, Thanks!), and some other setlists from setlist.fm.
Please don't sell!
Please don't share in lossy format!
Please don't share without the original .txt file!
If you want to remaster this, please let me know so that you can use the master recording!
Support the band. Buy their albums, go see them live!
