Lineage: Sony ECM-717>Yamaha Pocketrak 2G>USB>Soundforge>dBpoweramp Music Converter. Volume boosted in Soundforge but no EQ used.

The Guildhall is a 'mare of a venue soundwise. It's an old, ornate municipal building that is basically a concrete rectangle with a high ceiling, the majority of gigs I've attended there sounded terrible. The trick is to keep the volume down and happily Alice's crew knew this so the sound was pretty damned good, not great but good.

The Psycho-Drama Tour continues with the same set-list as last year which is pretty odd when there's a new album out this week! No complaints though, it's a fantastic greatest hits set and it's a well drilled stage show, the hanging was a little more convincing this time. I only hope that he plays the south of England again next year with the Along Came a Spider tour.
