(005534) Alice Cooper 2016-05-19 Foellinger Theatre, Fort Wayne, IN (FLAC)

Recorded 19MAY16 at the Foellinger Theatre, Fort Wayne, Indiana

Alice hit the stage at 7:25PM, opening with the familiar Vincent Price

spoken part, which serves nicely as the introduction for "The Black

Widow."

There were twenty-two songs performed altogether, and the crowd was

really into it, with a mix of middle aged folks and some youngsters,

including two young women probably not past their mid twenties

directly in front of where my wife and I were, so it's encouraging to

see that Alice is stil attracting new fans after all these years.

A real highlights was the extended intro for "Poison"

performed by Alice's very talented (and yes, very beautiful) lady

guitarist, Nita Strauss.

Likewise, Alice's drummer, Glen Sobel does a nice even more extended

drum solo, exhibiting lots of fancy fills, drumstick acrobatics, and

incorporated (I'm unsure about exactly how they did this) a really jarring audio

effect that went from low frequency to extremely low frequency, which

can be heard several times during his solo.

Alice performed one encore, "Elected," but that was still a nice and

amusing closer, especially with two people he had come out on stage,

one wearing a Hillary Clinton mask and the other wearing a Donald

Trump mask, both kicking each other in the butt and otherwise

engaging in mock violence.

Recorded with Tascam DR-07 in 16-bit mode at 44.1KHz.

The raw WAV file was subsequently divided with Audacity into

individual WAV track.

WAV files compressed to FLAC format and full descriptive metadata were

added to all files using KID3.

There was no remastering or modification of any sort to the audio,

with only a simple division and compression to FLAC performed.

I have to make a bit of an apology for the volume level clearly being

adjusted at the very beginning of the first track, "The Black Widow"

because my levels that were perfect before that suddenly went into

distortion territory, so I had to hurriedly readjust the volume to get

it back into acceptable territory.

Also, I made the mistake of bumping the pause button for a moment near

the end of "Feed My Frankenstein," so that's why a few seconds are

missing from that, but at least I caught it and corrected it in less

than fifteen seconds.
