Comment:  The whole show was played unamplified.
The boys just got a kick out of us doing this.  
They literally played right into each mic when they soloed.
The only real issue was the vocals.  We should have had 8
mics but since we only had 6 the decision was made to put
the Schoeps in a stereo pattern at the lip of the stage to capture
vocals evenly.  You can really FEEL the band placement and the
stereo seperation is amazing.  Enjoy!  This is not a board!
