Review:
It was a great honor to see Henry Rollins on his spoken word tour.
Not only is he an amusing individual, but he also talked about relevant
topics in our world today. Don't mistake Mr. Rollins's spoken word for
the rant of an uneducated, brain dead musician. The show was quite long
too, totaling almost 3 hours in length. My favorite part of the show was
when he told his burglar story, incredibly funny.
The recording came out acceptable. I did not use an attenuator cable as
I thought it would be too hard to hear the vocals. There are a few seconds
here and there where the mic overloads, and you can hear me adjusting the
levels in the first 50 seconds or so of the show. Other than that, a great
show. There is about a 25-30 second gap in between discs as well, but i
tried to swap mini-discs in between stories.
