Metatron 11. Drunkship of Lanterns 15. Day of The Baphomets Edit notes: Bass reduction with parametric eq to Source 1 Source 1 had four major skips; 1 in Metatron, 2 in Drunkship, and 1 in Baphomets. About 2 minutes total of the show is missing in Source 1. I used Source 2 to patch the missing time. I also smoothed out a jarring mic drop in Metatron. The original show can be found here: http://www.thetradersden.org/forums/showthread.php?t=51752 Thanks to James(THEGROUCH) for sending me the second source. Enjoy, chow" "Record Notes: This is my first recording ever. I think it turned out alright. Thanks to Zaid Khan for the equipment, and much respect to the following tapers for giving the Volta community great boots over the years. I`t's because of you guys that I wanted to add to the library; Galen, Al Tavorich, Martin, Jeff Shaw, Mike B, Adam Lancaster, T Simpson, Rob Cunningham, Rob Kismet, Adam, Iceman, Brian V, and any others I may have forgotten Recorded from stereo mics behind the ear 5.5 ft. from the ground spaced 7 inches apart. The show was recorded about 45 ft back in at center stage in the audience. The iRiver was set to +35.0 dB volume gain. This is a dancing recording. I was dancing like a maniac. What this means to the recording; There is a rotating stereo effect, due to my 'head-banging'. I don't think it takes away from the recording... I rather enjoy it, but it's a personal feel. There are one or two volume dropouts (very noticiable for a second or two in Cygnus) do to me 'getting down' behind people, and the sound being partially blocked. There are skips in some of the tracks. Most noticiable in Metatron, Drunkship (especially during the jam) and Baphomets. I think this is because I'm dancing so hard that the iRivers cache is being expended. There are two mic drops (one during Cygnus and another during Metatron). Another issue, there are some static noises in Drunkship, Ilyena, and Aberinkula. I tired to minimize my clapping and cheering to get a good recording, but you can hear me say 'Yes.' before Ilyena, as well as sing some fo the lyrics. I also expect that you can hear my exhuasted breathing sometime after Metatron, though I haven't had a chance to listen to the boot with high quality cans yet. Show Notes: This is the first official show of the Bedlam tour. It was the 6th TMV show I've seen, and possibly the best. I was certainly the sorest after dancing to this show. There was no opener, they were set to start at 9pm, but didn`t go on until about 9:40pm. I thought the crowd was great, but I was at center back. I heard some complaints afterwards of slam dancing, near the middle of the ballroom. The rumours are very true, Pridgen is a beast incarnate. Enjoy this. And be nice to tapers, please. :) ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ THIS SHOW IS NOT TO BE SOLD IN ANY FORM!!! ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~" |
