| J-Card Comment | Taper's notes: This was my 4th AFP show. When compared to the previous night at the Hollywood Bowl, I thought this was a better performance--especially from Thom. I'd never heard him talk so much (a great deal of it was high praise devoted to the opener, James Holden, since this was the last night Holden would open for AFP on their North American tour). Thankfully, the people around me were mostly quiet. A lot of the audience noise actually came from a group of guards and ushers in front of me who talked a lot from "BYVE" through "Ingenue." During that time, the loudest chatter is from a male guard during "Default" and a female usher during "Ingenue." Besides that, there was a couple two seats away from me that can be heard lightly talking during the quiet bits of "Unless" and briefly in "AIRAN" and in "Cymbal Rush." The couple to my right were silent, but they departed at the second encore, so unfortunately I ended up with slightly chatty seathoppers next to me in "AFP." There were also people talking in the walkway to my left and they are heard at the beginnings of "Dropped" and "Cymbal Rush," and from "RIYH" through the end of the show. Also, a man shouted in the aisle to my left during "BYVE" and some guy cutting through the row behind me wooped during "The Clock." And a man in the row behind me was excited about "RIYH" so he wooped a few times in that song. Because of my seat's proximity to a main thoroughfare, there is a lot of quick phasing caused by people walking in front of me. These moments occur in "BYVE," "The Clock," "AIRAN," "Dropped," "Cymbal Rush," "FPABH," "RIYH" and "Black Swan" (during the latter, someone also shouts as he walked by me). I amplified this, but did nothing else to the recording. And if burning to cd, the suggested split is between "Cymbal Rush" and "FPABH." I took a lot of photos and have included a selection for your viewing pleasure.
