Devils & Dust Tour: Philadelphia, PA: May 17, 2005: Tower Theatre (Bickle version)

~ Release by Bruce Springsteen (see all versions of this release, 6 available)

Annotation

Recorded w/ Sony D100 Dat and CSB Mic’s w/ Bass Roll Off
From Right Orchestra, unfortunately, under the overhang.

I didn’t do any mastering to this recording. I’ll leave that to the guys that are good at it....Flynn, Mr T. have at it.

Like I said, I was under the overhang. Sound was still good and crowd was relatively quiet, but when someone around me talked or laughed or clapped it was very loud.

I know of at least three other tapers in the building that night and I hope what they put out is an improvement over this tape, but in the mean time…enjoy.
