Recording notes : I was in front of the bar and the sound was good. This evening people in front of the stage hadn't heard Cedric well. I Had a Problem with my MD (this is my first show as a taper) so I didn't record A Fist Full Of Dollars. I thought that Cassandra Geminni was after the encore but the band hadn't left stage. I'm sorry but I had to change my disc during the song (I recorded it in PCM mode) so Cassandra is in two part (less than 2 minutes are missing).
Editing notes : The sound is not normalize because it causes me problems to encode into flac or mp3. I have just split the recording into tracks. I cut the introduction improvisation. I made a fade in and a fade out at the beginning and at the end of Cassandra Geminni part2.

*with Special Guest John Frusciante!!!

Record Notes: Recorded from stereo mics clipped to hat 6 ft. from the ground spaced 6 inches apart. The show was recorded about 180 ft back from just the center stage in the audience. My iRiver record level was set to 3 and my volume input level on my battery box at 50-60%.

Show Notes: This was the one of the best TMV shows I have ever seen. They started off just after sunset with no opener. The crowd cheered in anticipation of the Fistfull anthem. The crowd roared and Mars rocked into a killer Cygnus. From there it was glorious. The background screen was a nice treat for the eyes with the two men with covered heads. L'via was incredible especially with John Frusciante (from R.H.C.P.) throwing down some licks. The lights were surreal and made the whole stage seem as if it were swirling. Adding to the mix were the fantastic saxiphonist/flutist/percussionist and Paul Hinojos on the programmer/sound effects who kept it flowin between songs. The show sounded so clear, the weather was perfect(65°F) and the band didn't have to stop for equipment problems at all. Once again, the recording will hopefully fill you in. Anyway the show was amazing and it sounds fantastic, it was an excellent venue for recording and I hope you enjoy it!
