There were people around me and some just kept talking during the show. I could't reposition, but luckily the talkers were behind the mic so you you don't hear them much. Tracks were slightly EQ-ed and volume was a bit corrected, but I kept the dynamics in tact. I use no compression. After correction, tracks were split at sector boundaries. Flacs are tagged for convenient playback on compatible systems. ABOUT THE CONCERT IQ celebrates their 30th anniversary in 2011. Their touring this year is a celebration of IQ music. Or 30 years of prog-nonsense as they say. This weekend in october they played De Boerderij two nights on a row. This first night (saturday) they had a special surprise. The entire album Subterranea was played as a celebration. Including the costumes, and new video material. A treat for all fans indeed. I must say the music speaks for itself. Peter's voice was very good and the band was on fire, including the new keyboardplayer Neil Durant. Special guest was Johnny (last name unknown) who contributed on sax. It was a superb show accompanied by full surround sound effects. Enjoy this recording of one of my most memorable IQ concerts ever. Note: night two (sunday) will be released seperatly!
