Equipment: Mini Disc --- Core Sound Binaurals > Battery Box > Sony MZ-R700
Taping Position: Center Mezzanine Seating

Notes: We arrived late as none of us were trying to get to the venue to simply check out Meshuggah. Had a
few beers in the International Center parking lot, talked & took our time getting in to the show. Geared up in the
bathroom as Meshuggah was jamming. Listening now, the recording seems kind of cool. Faintly, Meshuggah is
playing the background as we chat & make our way around the perimeter of the venue to our seats. Once we
make it by our seats & walk into the concert area, the music gets louder & almost dramatic as we have a seat.
All in all, cannot say I am a huge fan but can appreciate what it is they do with their talent. The band, I mean.
The venue has quite possibly, the most annoying security people ever. Look on TDN sometime, check out the
reviews of the Tool show & read for yourself. No smoking, no beer, no being cool to the audience at all. Nasty
stuff. The people that were staffed were simply snot-nosed kids who were most likely in business management
or recreational education or something that needed jobs. Which is fine, but if you are working under those
circumstances, on capus, at a rock concert, wouldn't you be a lot cooler? I would try, at least.
