Hey gonz,
It may be a good place, but I am sorry the acoustics are terrible. I
hope future shows do have good acoustics. I'm telling you, I could
barely hear Jack sing, I couldn't hear the synth leads/melodies for
sh*t, all you could hear where the backbeats and the BASS (in your
chest of course). I don't mind bass at extreme volume, I love it! This
time however you just couldn't hear enuff of the highs to hear it all!
It would take me a minute or two too see if I recognized the song, but
I would have to recognize the beat 1st, that is how bad it was.
