Notes:
Extremely annoying and vocal crowd plus bombastic bass equals okay recording at best. Had great seats right by the speakers at the front of the stage, so this recording should have been excellent, but Flans encouraged the crowd to flood (tee-hee) the aisles plus the area directly in front of the stage, thus things did not go as smoothly as I thought they would when I first got to my seat. Oh, well. If you were there that night (and I know one of you were cos I met you!), then you will wanna grab this despite its flaws.
PLAY LOUD.
Don’t sell, don’t down-convert, don’t stop believing.
