Anyway, today I told him I found this show on the internet. Of course that made me a hero LOL. So I was able to put some of the song list together. Not much of a fan but after hearing the show I started to like it so I guess for the Alarm fan this one's a hit. About the show: The show was recorded at The Starland Ballroom in Sayreville, NJ on 04-10-04. The recording is A aud. The venue is a nightclub setting with in-house sound and lighting. Both are very nice. The club was re-designed in the year 2003 and was once called Modern Times where Bonjovi & Richie got a lot of their following. Little did they know in the year 2004 kids would have to go under cover and record the show for their parents (without their consent). I hope you enjoy the show captured live by: definitive stealth works Final Harvest's notes: This is one of the very first shows I got from STG way back in the fall of 2004. Grabbing an Alarm show from Dime today (January 2007) I remembered this one and decided to torrent it. I did a little bit of cleaning up: These were originally encoded as shn. I decoded them to wav and later re-encoded them to flac because flacs use less space and you can fast forward and rewind them. Tracks Marching On/Where Were You ... and Coming Home/Absolute Reality were not split. I did that but left Declaration/Marching On as one track. There is still some sloppy editing at the beginning of 45 RPM and Spirit Of '76, which I left. I found out about that too late and it would have meant to merge the tracks and do the whole encoding and checksum thing over again. Since only the song announcements and not the songs themselves are affected I chose to leave them this way. I changed the txt-file, corrected some song names and I've added spectral views (done with EAC and Cool Edit Pro) and a frequency analysis of a 2-second-snippet of Where Were You Hiding. I also did new checksums for the new wav and flac files and renamed the files. However: Taken in its entirety this recording is exactly the same as I got it two and a half years ago. So all credit should first and foremost go to RIDER, who was kind enough to record and share this short but excellent show! Dimeadozen.org: Torrent 129309 (by finalharvest)
