| Note | In several ways, this show is the antithesis of the night before. The band is playing with more intensity, and Maynard & Paul are out front in the mix, in contrast to the Adam-domination of last night. And they are playing a larger venue: Le Zenith in Caen (as opposed to the 10 other Le Zeniths across France). “Welcome to the enormodome” says Paul. And if you look at pictures of the venue (http://tinyurl.com/fru6n and http://www.zenith-caen.fr/photos/exter.jpg) you can see what he means. It looks like a huge slab of a dance floor with a mile high ceiling and tons of seats sloping up around it. Clearly excessive for this type of show. Echo … echooo … echoooo.
The recording is damn good though. But should we expect less from Stephane D? It catches the echo of the dome, but is very sound-focused and balanced. Maynard is nuclear tonight. A radioactive, exploding fission of a performance. He’s taking advantage of the expansive venue and projecting his voice with force, colliding with fans and reverberating off the walls in echoes. “Let MEEEEEEE … in.” “Even if I’m JUST KIDDAAAAAAAAAANG!” And Bottom is fucking tenacious. Check your vitals after this one. “This next song is called French People Suck.” - Paul to introduce Hush. Recorded by S.D. and transferred from DAT > cdr in October 2002 |
