Bruce Springsteen

Oakland Arena


Three source blend


Contrast clause:  This is an amalgamation of the following audience recordings:


(1) A recording done by DIME user "stilagrrl", with Edirol R-09HR w/built-ins, 
provided to me in 16 bit 44.1kHz format.  The raw file was a bit bassy/distorted,
I don't think 
    it's as good on its own as the others.  I can provide this recording 
in either raw or EQ'ed form by request.


(2) http://www.dimeadozen.org/torrents-details.php?id=430502
taper: bakerstuff (baker1023)
source: Church Audio CA-14 > CA-UGLY PreAmp > Edirol R-09HR


(3) http://www.dimeadozen.org/torrents-details.php?id=430972
taper : markp
source : AT853 (UL Shotgun Capsules) > Naiant Tinybox > Sony PCM-M10

I 
briefly also considered incorporating the 'benchboy' ALD supplied by markp,
here:  http://www.dimeadozen.org/torrents-details.php?id=431257 but it turned
out to have too much 
static for it to be listenable.

See the included PNG file for how the recordings were laid out.

Damn.

It's the Boss, what more is there to be said?  This is about out of my realm as my 
Paul McCartney soundcheck recording a couple of years ago, but at 63 years young, 
Bruce Springsteen clearly still has it, helped by the illustrious E Street Band which 
includes Max Weinberg, Nils Lofgren, Stevie Van Zandt, and his wife Patti Scialfa.  
It's 
no wonder this was the second-highest grossing tour next to Roger Waters.  I wish 
I would have been there, the singalong at the start of 'Hungry Heart' is enough to raise 
the 
hairs on the back of my neck.  

My coworker (a *huge* Boss-fan) recorded and supplied source (1), asking me if there was 
anything I could do with it.  This is the product, as it
would have been OK by itself.  
Hopefully, this is a worthwhile listen for any of you interested in how this blend sounds...

Take care,

Persic said it best:

"feel free to do whatever you wish with this and any other torrent i post or have ever 
posted 
it would be great if you wish to post on to other sites so others may choose to get this should 
they wish and please do so whenever and wherever you wish that includes if
you wish to post to mp3 
sites in whatever rate you wish please feel free to post any amount to blogs in any format you wish 
feel free to share in any format in anyway in any 
location at anytime you wish as once you have 
downloaded this here from dime it is just as much yours as it is mine so hell change the txt file, 
delete tracks, move tracks 
around, lie about where the show is from and who recorded it matrix it 
with a recording of some other band recorded many years before or do the one thing nobody does....
listen 
to it. support the artist, buy releases and see them live.  my one request............ 
don't even wonder or think that i have any requests about what you do with this, as i 
don't...
(or any other torrent i ever post)"
