Sadly, this was the last time that I saw John Lee Hooker. This was a free show at the Mid-State Fair in Paso Robles at the Frontier Stage. It was PACKED!!! For some reason the pads on my Neumanns were turned off and since I can't fine tune the gain on my Beyer mic preamp the show has a bit of clipping. I was NOT happy because it was a good show with really good, LOUD sound. The pads are inset into the body of the mics and it takes a tiny screw driver or other small tool to switch them on. I had nothing with me to set them with so I was SOL! The clipping is only on the highest peaks. I think the recording still sounds decent, but not as good as it could have. It was a wonderful set and I had no idea at the time that it would be the last time that I was to see 'Mr Lucky'. :(
