When: 2026.09.04

Some notes about the concert;
When visiting the Francis Rossi concert at the Muziekgebouw Eindhoven earlier this year I noticed a poster of an upcoming Emmylou Harris concert there.
She is a long time favorite of mine so when I got home I set down to buy tickets. But all three concerts in the Netherlands in May had dates that were impossible for me.
Then it turned out she came to Antwerp later that this year, so we bought tickets, and I finally got to see her live.

Some notes about the recording;
We were sitting high on the balcony in the middle of the row.
I recorded this concert with my I-phone and my Roland R05. The lossless I-phone recording was only my back-up plan, but luckaly I didn't need it.
The Roland recording came out very very well imho. That's also because the acoustic in the Stadsschouwburg was very good.
In contrast to the sagging and way too small chairs! Everybody around me was complaining about the lack of room to move just a little.
I have never been to a simular venue where I sat that tight. Not being able to move for more than three hours is kinda hard, but Emmylou's performance made it worthwhile.

This is the way it went: Roland R05 in WAV => Music Cleaning Lab => making tracks and a sound adjustments => WAV => Switch Sound File Convertor => FLAC => Dimeadozen.
The sound adjustments are almost only volume changes otherwise you couldn't hear Emmylou talking properly in between the songs.
And on the last song I had to increase the volomeleveleven more.
