Plug In Baby w/ End Jam (6:14) Notes: Due to a problem with my flash card, and a poor decision to tape the mediocre opening act, I was only able to get most of this show. The songs left out are Time is Running Out, Unnatural Selection, Exogenesis I, Stockholm Syndrome, and Knights of Cydonia. This was a show I was on the fence buying tickets to, as I wasn't a huge fan of The Resistance. I'm very glad I went as Muse put on one hell of a show, and they at least played two of my favorite tracks from the new album, the title track and Undisclosed Desires. From the side of the second level in a venue not known for great sound quality you can imagine there was quite a bit of echo and the source is not clear at all. However, some meticulous EQ'ing and the show now sounds really good I'd say. It's funny, I'm not used to taping arenas, and I normally need to simply cut some bass out in post-processing, perhaps boost the high end a little, but when I started messing with this I really wasn't sure wtf to do. So, I did what any professional would... I started picking random CEP equalizer settings, and I came across one that made it sound a billion times better and then simply tweaked it from there! After that was done it was hard-limited and normalized to bring the overall volume up. Please do not sell this show or convert to lossy formats. Nickeh (www.nickeh.com) |
