  1. Although I think he intended to play it.. The other half nearly came out at your show!
  2. Listening to CC's Wembley.

    Meh. I miss his natural audience tapes, like Atlantic City 2003.
  3. Originally posted by dylbagz:I think the version I have is the essexboy version also. It is good enough, but I would definitely appreciate a better recording - was a terrific setlist.

    On another note, how good is 2012-08-15 - Boston - Fenway 2?

    Bakerstuff version of Boston is quite good.
  4. I've never been a fan of IEMs at all but I have to admit that they have dramatically improved in quality since 2008-2010 (I mostly listen to U2 bootlegs but anyway). Pre-2008 IEMs are unlistenable to me, nowadays they sound like soundboards.

    Nothing beats a good audience recording for me anyway.
  5. I just don't like how they practically remove the audience noise. Sometimes they sound like they're performing in an empty arena/stadium.

    That's obviously their biggest fault for me. What I like the most about live performances is the fedback, the electricity, the connection between the performer and the audience, and of course the singalongs and audience reactions to what's being played (and the artists reaction to the audience behaviour)... IEMs -and, to a lesser extent, soundboards- delete that sound and therefore kill much of the show emotions for me.

    Others would argue that soundboards and IEMs have the best sound quality with all the instrument being well defined and listenable, etc... It's true most of the times, but if I want to hear a perfectly defined instrumentalization, I go and listen a studio album. I listen to live recordings to get a LIVE feeling, something that sadly doesn't come across too well on IEM recordings.
  7. I'm an idiot.

  11. Bruce Springsteen, London 2012-06-15:

    "We were here last spring, we wanted to do something different for you, so.." and proceeds to play the whole of the Darkness on the Edge of Town record live in its entirety.

    Makes me even more sure that Melbourne (perhaps more east coast Australian shows) will get an album in 2014.
