Notes

I wish John's vocals were louder at some points, but it's basically exactly what you heard in the room, and it's hard to imagine a better recording without plugging into the board. I hope everyone enjoys. (edit: LMGBnote ~1.5 years later- after catching the live taping itch, perpetually seeking to improve my gear and techniques, it is wild reading this comment. All I did was plop my h4n pro down and point it between the stacks, XY 90 degrees. Simple as can be. Goes to show how much of taping is positioning.) ((EDIT2: lmgbnote ~2.5 years later, after learning more about mixing/mastering- reading this is hilarious, I hear so many faults with the recording, and now I kind of want to remaster it, but I know that at one point I thought it was great, and it probably holds up better on car stereos / smaller earbuds like I was primarily using back then, so I am conflicted. Come back another year later for yet another update.))







Recorded on the balcony of the Fillmore- 24bit/48khz. Thank you to the Mountain Goats for creating such beautiful music. Thank you to John Darnielle for supporting livetaping, and thanks to everyone else who has ever taped a show. They've brought me countless hours of enjoyment, as I hope mine do as well.
