"Recorded from Row 15 - Floor Section, centre of that row. I was only two rows away from the crescent-shaped stage catwalk, so I got some *very* nice close-up views of David Lee Roth and Wolfgang Van Halen! I attended this concert exactly a week after I saw Spice Girls in Vancouver on the first date of their world tour (which is a story on its own, ha ha!), and I really wanted to attend another big show to finish off 2007, and I'd never seen Van Halen before, so I decided to get my ticket the night before...lucked out, because they'd released some floor section seats (Which had been 'sold out' for a long time) before the show, so I got a very nice seat! This concert was a blast, although not being familiar with most of Van Halen's catalogue, I just *listened* to the music and enjoyed it, took it for what it was...and awesome songs they were! The band was very energetic. They seemed to enjoy themselves, and David was very humourous (yet slightly raunchy) with some of his comments, so it was a nice change for me, having attended more 'serious' concerts in 2007 (The Police, Roger Waters, Spice Girls) previously. Also, I couldn't help but notice how normal looking Wolfgang Van Halen is...! He looks like he could be any normal kid from Edmonton, and he certainly wouldn't be out of place if he were living here, ha! (I wish his bass was louder and more boomy, but for someone who hasn't been playing bass long, he's not bad at all! And I'm speaking as a musician myself!) All in all, was a very enjoyable concert! Enjoyed myself Only complaint was the guy in front of me smoking some bad cigar(ettes?)....security took his smokes, needless to say :P Oh and yes, my recording! ...I daresay it's my best recording in terms of quality out of my four recordings from the concerts I'd been to in 2007 (none have been disappointing really, to tell you the truth!), especially in terms of quality. And for once, I'm pleased I can actually really hear the audience very well on my recording! (Usually, my mikes seem to lower the audience noise!) Anyways, that's all for my comments! (Sorry if it was too long!) Enjoy! - inu-liger" |
