Notes

* three of us had set up our mics stage lip on 2 stands. The tour manager told us to move about 15 minutes before the band took the stage, we had to move quick to get to the back of the room and set up again before they started. Unfortunate and frustrating situation at a fun show. The next night was not captured due to a similar situation.

1st set has a pretty major dropout that I will fix if I can get another copy of the show - will update this note when complete.

CTlew> Someone was taping right next to the stacks on the upper tier during the second night

FWIW - this was Ingsy.

It's too bad - on 4/9 the 2nd of the 2 tapers at the show walked out of the venue before the band took the stage when he was forced to move his gear again and went to tape something else vowing "I'll never buy a tND ticket again" (he later wrote me an email about this). The band manager had said he would accomodate if the footprint was smaller (see d1t01 for a recording of this exchange). Obviously he changed his mind last minute. Oh well, less tapers = less tapes so Boston night 2 does not exist. Sorry folks.

Has it only been barely a week!? Very glad to see this up so soon, and would love to hear the second night. First night in Northamton will be commited to memory and re-danced in my dreams. Cannot think of anything to write after 10 mins of staring other than....."Oven Fresh Fantastic" It just doesnt get any better.

Subject: Second Night a No-Go

Thanks for quick upload Brad. I attempted to tape the second night, which rocked, but the recording sounds horrible - static and 'pops' throughout the whole recording. I am not sure if a cable was loose - or if I was just too close to the stack but the recording cannot be fixed and hence will not be uploaded. Sorry, I was hoping to tape onstage and did not have a large stand to accomodate the tour manager's request. Both shows were HOT though - check out the 'sunglasses at night' on the first set of this show, it is SICKO.

Thanks for getting this up so quickly. Sound quality is good, though would have loved to hear the recordings from where you were originally set up. Someone was taping right next to the stacks on the upper tier during the second night, hopefully those will surface sometime soon. These guys bring the heat everytime they play, and it seems to be more intense everytime I see them at the middle east. Check out the stash teases at the 6 min. mark during G-Nome (d1 last track). Definately worth a download.
