NOTES:
This show was held in the back of a noisy Irish pub right next-door to the famed Moulin Rouge. That being the case, there is plenty of atmospheric noise to be heard on this recording, like glasses tinkling at the bar, which was located no more than twenty feet from the stage, loud music from the outer bar that was audible whenever people went out to the toilets, cameras clicking constantly, a guy dropping a camera on the stage at one point, etc. However, this recording sounds pretty darn good despite the racket in the pub (none of that noise would’ve been audible had the band not played so quietly, truth be told). Not wanting to end up with a recording filled with incessant chatter, I decided to stand right in front of the monitors and just leave the recorder on the stage by ‘em...with excellent results! The show ended rather abruptly—the sound was shut off by the sound guy as the boys started playing their final song of the set (how rude!). I guess the pub wanted to make way for a disco dance party or some shit. Oh, and the idiot who yells Slayer at Parisian rock concerts was in attendance! Hurrah! And, yes, he yelled Slayer at THIS show! What a funny guy. I bet he gets ALL the babes! You can hear him yelling stupid shit in-between each and every song of this set (thankfully, he shut up while the band was actually playing—how thoughtful of him!). I’d like to wring that guy’s neck.
PLAY LOUD?
With regards to the distribution of this recording, I only ask that you try real hard not to spread it around as MP3 files; otherwise, do what thou wilt.
