Yes, but I had to send them back to Canada (home of CA) for alligator clip removal after I decided to go with the croakies. Alas, I'll be using the internal mics once again. But I'll have those babies back for the October shows at UPT and Wellmont.

Never mind reports, we want recordings and if possible some singalong vocals. I imagine the doc has a resonant, stentorian bass and BA warbles like a demented cherub so pick a track, do a chorus and make my day !! :lol: :lol:

Will dig out that tomorrow and scan the artwork at the same time! I remember trying to force my way through the crowd at Bristol in 2002 as some bumpkin sang along to Oliver's Army threatening to wreck my recording. A couple of times I've been right at the front and "mimed" so Elvis wouldn't know I wasn't singing in case it came out on my recording - sad or what ! :roll:

LOVE THAT STORY SULKY!

yeh, when you dig it out (as you know it's mine!) you'll hear me pleasing El as he begs a sing-along. you gotta realize, i was in overdrive...flying from NYC at near midnight and getting to Vegas like 2 in the morning friday night (their time) to catch Elvis Saturday night. we partied NON STOP!!! AND, i had a bad feeling that the crowd was noisy anyway, so i didn't imagine my tape would come any good. but it did. and you have a collector's item...i have edited out my drunken call of TWENTY FIVE FINGERS. so, keep your rarity CLOSE!!!

another STELLAR and different show! as soon as i did NOT hear the guitar note El holds before singing "he's a fine figure of a man" i KNEW we were getting a different opener. and a GREAT one too...VOGUE>DETECTIVES always works, tonight into harmonica and HELP ME! loose and rocking all night. think he only played acoustic on two songs. i get three i never saw yet and many i had not seen in awhile. Big Sis, a great surprise that i hadn't seen since when...84 or 83? cool to see him up in the balcony collecting a pair of spinners. really a GREAT tour and everyone should go more than once! oh, MY TAPE SOUNDS GREAT DOC!!!!! and I WANT YOU was the 2500th song i've seen him do LIVE!

I think he means me. My recording sounds better at home than it did in the car, ba. Which is good. A little cavernous with the muffled vocals, but it's acceptable.

The video looks good. Got all but the first 3 songs.

Great video, Doc.

At the Vegas show, a few people in the front were screaming for Big Sister's Clothes. In response, Davey put his hands together in prayer and said, "Please no. I don't know that one." Good thing he has learned it since. Love that song.
