Would have thought that someone else would have resurrected this subject by now.
Currently listening to Stationary Traveller by Camel.

"I saw them play The Bath festival, Shepton Mallet 1970. It was in the middle of the night, we were right at the front and it was pissing down so, to avoid being electrocuted, they played an acoustic set. The rain stopped as a bright red sun rose. The Byrds stood around one mic and sang a cappella. Amazing."

"oioi, I love the Byrds, Bells of Rhymney is my favourite track of theirs: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MOHYq2KNlHY"

"MaryMillingtonsGhost 3:10 Thu May 19 It was all seated for Tool, so hopefully it will be in future too (however many years that may be!) I've been in most areas of the O2 and sound has been fine, largely depending on the act/PA. The only area I wouldn't do again personally is the upper tier (even front row), mostly because you feel as if you're sat on the roof, looking down on whatever is going on miles beneath you. The Indigo is great. Wide and shallow with a huge bar at the back."

"Bungo 8:25 Thu May 19 Agree with vocals seeming far too low. They were also very low for the support act (Brass Against). First time I'd been to the O2 so don't really have a comparisson. There's a wall not far behind where you sit on The Deck and it's possibly this that affects the SQ- reverb, destortion and shit. Definately down at floor level next time (as long as it's seated)."

"colinos 2:21 Thu May 19 Nice. When I read that Whitesnake had brought Jelusick in, I suspected he might be playing a 'supporting' role to DC. Brilliant singer BTW. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nm-XyaNP4nc"
Re: What if anything are you listening to now?
"Bungo 7:18 Wed May 18 Gig was great, but Whitesnake were probably the worst of the 3 - Coverdale was definitely being double tracked on a lot of his vocal and sadly can't hit the high notes. Shame they are retiring but I can see why. Foreigner and Europe were both superb."

"SurfaceAgentX2Zero 7:15 Wed May 18 Re: What if anything are you listening to now? Musical relevance here too. Lots of old Hollies stuff on YouTube. Boy could they play and sing. Nash is a bit of a wanker, though. Agreed, their harmonies with Nash, Hicks and Clarke were up there with anything the Beatles did. Also how underrated were Tony Hicks and Bobby Elliot. Truly a great great band. Yeah was a tosser still he had David Crosby a tosser in equal measure as him."
Re: What if anything are you listening to now?
"MaryMillingtonsGhost 9:56 Wed May 18 Interesting. I saw them in Birmingham as I was away last week. The sound at Brum was OK although the vocals were a bit low in the mix. I wasn't sure if this was intentional or not? I've been in most places in the O2 Arena except The Deck. Do you think the sound was particularly bad in that location, or do you think it might have been the sound in general and similar quality elsewhere in the venue?"

"Bungo 12:34 Thu May 5 Saw Tool last Tuesday at the O2. Gig was fucking outrageous. Top quality, as is to be expected. Unfortunately so was the sound quality. Fucking abysmal. Never, ever, buy a ticket at the 02 on 'The Deck'."
