Excellent Audience recording!
Lively audience on this master!
The House Of Blues has a stellar room sound.
NOTICE: If any of the established unauthorized PRINCE recording reissue groups (4DaFunk/Free Boot Generation/Love or $/Fullasoul) would like to remaster this recording from the original 24/96 raw master, please be in touch.
ATTN DIME MODS: I am aware that PRINCE is on the NAB list. I can assure you that PRINCE did NOT perform on this recording!!
During the summer of 1984, The Purple Rain soundtrack was the FIRST rock album my mom ever bought for me, at the tender age of six.
While there was no way my parents would have taken me to see Prince's R-rated film debut, my mother did give in and purchase the Purple Rain soundtrack cassette for me,
once I became hooked on "Let's Go Crazy" after hearing it on B-104 KBFM. From that point forward, my mom herself, became a big Prince supporter.
Prince has been one of my favorite artists since the summer of 1984, and also one of the legends that I never had the opportunity to see live.
As an atheist as well as a serious music fan, I view Prince in the same way that Christians view Jesus Christ. During his brief time on Earth, his Royal Badness was truly a god among mortals.
Prince's supernatural musical abilities will never be equaled....
When it was announced that The Revolution would be kicking off the second leg of their Prince memorial/reunion tour in Dallas, Texas, I made plans to attend.
I was positioned in the seats directly above the last row of the center section of the balcony. I had been sick (serious head cold) all week and preferred to sit down while taping.
I simply didn't have the energy to stand in the general admission section all night. I had to stand on occasion to see over the crowd in front of me, so you may hear phasing from time to time.
I foolishly made the mistake of reducing the REC level from 8 to 7 at the end of Mutiny, when I noticed brief moments of overloading on the left channel.
While I should have left the REC level alone, I did use remastering tricks in an attempt to mask the shift in volume.
I had to apply extreme clip gain to "Sometimes It Snows In April". This completely acoustic performance was barely audible on the raw master recording.
While it was an honor to experience The Revolution live during their brief reunion tour,
I must state seeing the band without its iconic leader PRINCE, was like eating a peanut butter and jelly sandwich...
WITHOUT the jelly!
Do not get me wrong, the band was out to impress and didn't hold back....
However, there was simply no way the music would ever be the same without the single greatest musician
in HUMAN HISTORY, fronting the band! How could it possibly ever have been?!?
Being that this was the first night of the second leg of the tour, there were technical difficulties throughout the show.
Brown Mark also referred to Dallas as Austin, SEVERAL times during the concert, which was insulting!
The boisterous audience made sure to correct him. Earth to Brown Mark, The Revolution was in DALLAS on June 14, 2017!!
The Revolution concert was a celebration of Prince's life as well as a time to dance and get funky.
However, being both sick and interested in taping the show, really reduced the amount of fun I could have had.
Make sure to catch Prince's original and BEST band, The Revolution, while you can!
Life is just a party, and parties weren't meant 2 last...

IMPORTANT NOTE: I'm new to the Dallas/Fort Worth Metroplex and am eager to meet new friends who would be interested in attending (and taping) rock shows together.
If you'd like to join the taping community, please let me know...
Going to concerts with friends is MUCH MORE FUN!
I'm a full-time student at the moment.
I'm looking for an enjoyable part time job in Arlington to make a few extra bucks on the side.
Let me tape your band in DFW! Reasonable rates and quick turn around!
I'll tape ANYTHING for a price...
URGENT: I am interested in taping the Guns N' Roses performances at the Alamodome in San Antonio on September 8, 2017, as well as at the T-Mobile Arena in Las Vegas on November 17, 2017.
However, I am NOT interested in spending $300 to see Guns N' Roses AGAIN!
If you have an extra ticket to spare, please keep me in mind. Thank you!!
