Vine for Las Vegas 12/11/10

Post by holydove »

I recorded the last 3 concerts of the tour (from the 5th row each time); I see that the 2 LV concerts are available for downloading, but I thought that for people who don't love downloading, this might be a good option. I used a very good recording device & I recorded in WAV format & burnt it to the cd's that way, so the sound is really wonderful - you can hear every beautiful note/tone /syllable very clearly (as well as some loud hooting between the beautiful sounds)!!

There are just 2 things to note: There are no tracks, & Democracy is divided - it begins at the end of the first cd & continues on the 2nd cd (because the recorder created files by itself). Also, Take This Waltz is divided, but at a decent place - where Leonard starts introducing the band - so the song is not really interrupted. I spent 3 days trying to fix these issues, & I won't bore you with the gruelling details, but I haven't been able to fix it yet; but I don't want people to have to wait any longer to hear these AMAZING & WONDROUS performances! I guess we will just have to set aside time to listen to whole cd's at once (or you could always use the pause button. . .) Also, perhaps I should mention that there are 4 cd's, because WAV format takes up more space, & I changed the memory card during intermission, in case the concert went longer than the amount of time on the card ( as it turns out, that also prevented the potential breaking up of another song, & the concert would have needed 4 cd's anyway, in that format).

If you are interested in the recording from LV 12/11/10, please sign up & the first person can send me a pm with your address.

(I will start other vines when I have the other 2 concerts (LV 12/10 & Oakland 12/6) ready to go)

I think it makes sense to have 2 vines - one for North America & one for Europe/UK - that way everyone will get the recording sooner.

At this point the Europe/UK vine is: musicmania - pe - neo - Davido - Judy - Artur - Jilly - rpan - Guy - Phillip

The North American vine is: Mollydog - lcarbon - vern.silver

I will send out 2 copies: one to Mollydog & one to musicmania (please send me a PM with your address)
I am ready to send them out on Monday. I will make another post when they are in the mail.
