R.E.M. / 06.17.05 / Lancashire Cricket Ground / FLAC

​

Source: SP-BMC-3 > SP-SPSB-3 > NJB3/48.0KHz > WavePad v 1.2 > FLAC

Location:  Slightly to left, mid-audience.

Full show, but in a talkative region of crowd, especially in quiet songs like nightswimming.
Quality probably ~ B:  Music is still clear and singing distinct, but crowd has been mixed in.

​

Notes:
-Driver 8, These Days highlight setlist
-Before The Outsiders MS mentions that he will be sending the song out to Aung San Suu Kyi soon for her birthday, and that he was an outsider 'since my very first breath".
-Bass drops out of IOL for a bit
-Great Beyond is sent out to several friends as MS notes they have been playing the area for many years.
-MS indicates they are deviating from the setlist before Leave.
-Before intros, MS tells about feeling that the video in this venue was stellar in 2003, so they hired the company (Blue Leetch) to do all their shows.

​

Grade: D
-Audience chatter very prevalent.  Has a weird oscillation in levels throughout as if bouncing off of a limiter?
