I was sad to see that violinist/keyboardist/vocalist Margaret White hadn't made the trip up from North Carolina, as she was a great addition to the band when I saw them in July. Instead, as Richard explained, "We decided to replace her with three dudes," and the addition of James, Patrick, and Chris from +/- did help make up for her absence. Most of the set was new songs, with "Cicada Storm" a clear highlight, especially with two guitars and two drummers.

Vocals are a bit low in the mix, though I was able to boost them some in EQ. Otherwise, sound is great. Recorded with binaural mics from dead center, about 10 feet back from the stage.

Thanks to Brandon for help with the song titles. Versus track 2 is a guess at the title; on track 11 Richard says the title during the beginning of the song, but I can't make it out.
