Taper: Holland Live

 

Additional notes (by the taper): This show is recorded from the arena. I was standing on Adam's side of the stage, as close as one could get
to the speaker system. Compared to my 20th July recording, this one has a 'richer' sound, mainly because the acoustics of the venue played a smaller role while I was closer to the speakers than the day before. Of course this comes at a price: there is the usual crowd noise here and there. People clapping, singing, but I think the level is very acceptable.

 

Comments

This is a second source of the last night at the Amsterdam Arena. Sound is very clear but somewhat thin as the output is pretty distant, so it lacks clarity and a more polished sound. However, there is not much crowd interference. It may be a 'VG-'.

 

One is moved to be played a little earlier in the set. Elevation, Until the End of the World and Bad made their 360º Tour début.
