Hi everyone. It’s so hard to believe that half a year has passed since this incredible tour. Which makes me all the happier that we can now (re)live another one of Nick’s amazing gigs - the closing show in St Petersburg, Russia.
This release is a team effort: I received the raw wav from Vitaly, so enormous thanks go to him for taping this show! It then travelled from NYC to California for BLG’s mastering magic :) and back to NYC where I tracked it and here we are! The show sounds great except for 10 sec of buzz toward the end of People Ain’t No Good, and Nick gives his all to this grand 2+ hour wrap-up of a month-long run of 5 shows a week…
Let’s just hope he’s doing OK these days and that we will see him sometime… soon.
