Notes:
My brother and I decided to try and get tickets to the show day of. Sadly, I made us late and thankfully we found someone selling a pair of floor tickets for $50 total outside. I cut the time to the show too close and we got in right as the first song was playing. But Nick has the rule where to not let anyone into the hall once they start playing. I can respect that and understood my fate of not getting a complete recording. I didn’t setup like I usually did and fumbled rolling into the concert hall getting the mics setup. Once I know my tape is going to be incomplete, I usually don’t record. Or I never share it out, just because I hate the fact it misses songs. But, I really enjoy Nick Cave and his shows are incredible. I finally revisited this show last night after it had been on my desktop just staring at me for over a year. It was a great time that night with my brother. Love going to shows with him and he certainly became a full on Nick Cave fan after this (just as I did a few years prior!). Anyways, I was able to find a spot about 100 feet from the front of the stage, dead center. The recording did come out rather well for all the variables that lead up to it.

If anyone has a recording of the first two songs in full, in any quality, I’d love to correct my OCD and make this a full concert recording. If you grab it, hope you enjoy. I can’t wait to see this guy again.
