Notes


Audience recording

The recording conditions were really poor. It's an outdoor festival, and unfortunately, there was rain and wind during the show. Finally, the rain stopped around the middle of the show.

Moreover, the speakers were not of top quality and the entire sound was muddy, except for the vocals. This improved slightly during the second part of the show. This resulted in a recording that is far from being really good, but still enjoyable nonetheless. The first part is quite uneven and fluctuates due to turning wind. The worst are the first 2 tracks. It could be due to climate conditions, or maybe a poor balance later corrected by the sound man.
