// Notes
Recorded with my then brand new Zoom H2 unit with the internal 120 degree rear facing mics in the breast pocket of a T-shirt. I had my Sony ECM-DS70p mic but thought it was broken (it wasn't) so I did my best with the built in mics on the recorder, trying hard to sit up straight and push my chest out forwards. I can't remember where I sat, whether I had a floor seat or in the grandstand seating up behind the soundboard to the rear of the arena. I suppose when I find my ticket stub we will know for sure... I spent a bit of time cleaning up the intrusive crowd noise where applicable. There wasn't too much but a couple of sections got fixed up nicely. There were a lot of empty seats for Halford. I think there was some issues letting folks into the arena with inexperienced security personnel doing shoddy work and cavity searches. There's some youtube video of the show that shows lots of empty seats up front for Halford, but the room filled out by the time Ozzy was on stage later. As I say, I was using the internal mics with the recorder in my t-shirt pocket. At one very quiet point, if you listen very closely, or look closely in a spectral frequency analyzer, I think you can hear my heartbeat during the show! There's a very ultra low frequency rhythmic pattern that looks to be around 80 beats per minute. The recorder was sitting basically right on top of my heart, so I guess I am all over the low end of the subwooofer on this! You definitely don't hear it (me) but I guess I am there... Enjoy! I am still working on the Ozzy Osbourne recording from this night. There is a bit more crowd control to be done on it to make it nicely presentable to you all. I want to make some kind of cover art for it as well - need to dig up my old ticket stub from the show or something! I threw together a bit of a cover for your player art window from a FaceBook post by Metal Mike Chlasciak for the tour announcement. The listing for the show on setlist.fm was all wrong, so I corrected it. Looks like a semi-standard opening set for this run of shows warming up for Ozzy. Not many recordings out there from this time that I could find, and this is the first one of the tour! Don't buy or sell this recording. Don't print it up and bootleg it in your store in Japan - I know people there who will come to your store and break your discs of ours! Don't be the scumbag who sells CDR's online of all the stuff they download for nothing. But, please be the person who gives a copy to your buddy who would love to hear it! Be the one who re-shares the original fileset without changing any of the files (but maybe ask me first because I might be bringing them there myself next)! Be the person who sits at home enjoying the recording that they got for free. Enjoy! [email protected]
