| J-Card Comment | The first of 2 nights taping Collective Soul and the taping Gods were on my side in Mankato. Vetter Stone Amphitheater is a beautiful natural amphitheater located right off the banks of the Minnesota River. There is a pit area directly below the stage and concentric stone terraces surrounding it giving you an awesome almost unobstructed view of the stage (perfect for filming). I arrived at the venue about 5 hours before the show in order to get a great spot for my lawn chair directly in front of the soundboard and virtually dead center facing the stage. I sat through the few opening bands and watched the venue fill up so and was worried I would get the dreaded drunk tall guy right in front of me but thankfully he didn't never came. I lucked out and had a group of kids sitting in front of me which gave me a clear shot of the stage over their heads. There is one guy who was sitting in front of me and his head barely sticks out on the bottom of the frame but not that bad. During a few small spots a drunk girl who felt the need to stand up and face the crowd stood up directly in front of me but thankfully I patched these spots with an alternate angle I downloaded off of youtube. One interesting part of this show right after Precious Declarationwhen Ed notices security hassling the audience for filming. Before the next song he told security that the audience can film and do whatever they want causing the rest of the band to look at each other in confusion. I have a feeling that open filming is not a common occurance at a Collective Soul show. The audio for this show is really nice and one of the better IEM/Audio matrixes I have made. It consists of Dean Roland's ear monitor feed which is stereo and is mixed with my mic audio which also turned out great. He is naturally higher in the mix but thankfully there is no metronome and drum effects which are in the rest of the earfeeds from the band. I'm glad I didn't record Ed Roland's earfeed because he had constant problems with it throughout the night. Right before Run you can see him get totally pissed at his monitor man. You would think these monitor guys would get it right but they seem to be a constant problem with a lot of bands that I see. |
