Tech Notes "SHOW NOTES. What a strange gig. Satan's Hollow is basically a kind of 'all kinds of rock' night club- quite a small place really with a large central slightly raised circular dancefloor where the band set up and played, with crowd all around in a circle! I was expecting the sound to be poor but it was quite the opposite- the PA (I assume in house) didn't only come from one place so wherever you were, you got decent..and very LOUD..sound. I don't think I've ever recorded a band from behind before, either! Short set- even shorter than the Souuthampton show seeded here earlier this week. This was due to a club curfew to get the next bunch of punters in the door! Personally, I think this came out very nicely. Pelican's sound is pretty intense and 'dense', but everything sounds nice and clean on the reocrding, which other than an across the board volume boost, it's exactly as it came off the disc.

Thanks go to Duncanh for seeding the Southampton gig..and for reminding me that they were playing this show!

Enjoy, seed long and share freely. Buy Pelican's stuff, they are a most deserving band."
