Eight show from the The Cure's current impossible-to-get-tix-for US tour. Eclectic setlist including a handful of new songs. These guys are still great and Robert Smith's voice has not aged a bit. Recorded from Orch Row J in front of the mains. Samples below. A nice recording with lot of bass. A great venue. Like the Austin show, there was a cable issue the and right channel of a few minutes towards the beginning of the show went unrecorded. (Pretty sure I need a new battery box.) I patched it with the left channel. Same issue was at the the end of Lullaby and there was a few second drop out on both channels. I patched the hole with the same bit from Austin. It is not seamless. Even with extreme eqing, it's surprising how different the two shows sound. Other than that the show sounds great. Samples below.
24bit 48K recording. If you still burn to CD, it's pretty easy to convert the files to CD specs. Most burning programs do it internally. If burning, probably divide before Push and I Can Never Say Goodbye or Lullaby
