My Brightest Diamond – 11-12-09 – Live at the 930!
We’ve been saving this one for a rainy day… 2 years late, but better late than never. Ladies and gentlemen, My Brightest Diamond! If you’ve never heard this group you are in for a treat. If Nora Jones sang is a knarly rockn’roll band, this would be it. The complete show is available for free download in the audio section.
Part of the reason for the delay is all the work that needed to be done due to audio source dropouts… This problem is most evident on the encore ‘Freakout!’ but for the majority of the recording is not noticeable due to extensive editing. The place was packed and somehow the power supply on my old MOTU got a bit jolted.. Thankfully the unit stuck it out til the bitter end, and we now have a beautiful souveneer of the show! I recorded bands for 6 years prior to that problem, and it was the last gig done on that unit.
The recording balances out about 2 minutes into the first song. From then on it is very consistent. Be sure to thank My Brightest Diamond for allowing us to release this for free to the public!
