    I'm happy that I was able to record A Letter to Elise, The Big Hand, and Hanging Garden which I have not heard from this new lineup.

    Thanks Xuan! I just finished downloading it.

    I noticed that there are a bunch of files with the format .0x- and a filesize of 1KB. Can I delete these?

    lame? way to look a gift-horse in the mouth dude. where's your recording?

  9. XuanJune 27, 2008 at 10:45 PM

    abrashtx - you can just delete those. My encoding Mac artifacts.

    The reason why I was not able to get the whole show was my battery ran out because I bought cheap batteries thinking they were good.

    If anyone has good recording of A Forest and Forever, please post it by all means!

    Hey, Josh, I made the first ever video recording of Sleep When I'm Dead, so I consider my obligation to be fulfilled. :)

    thanks Xuan.
    there must be many other recordings from people that like to keep all for themselves but never miss a chance to download what others have to offer...

    Josh, wow dude, disrespectful, this is a great recording even though not complete, I would never complain about something I was given for free, accept it as a gift and be grateful. Thank you very much Xuan, nice job

    Xuan nice recording, thanks very much, some of us DO appreciate it!!
    Shame about your batteries but what you got sounds great!

    Shawn-x how is a video of one song some how better in your mind than audio of 20 songs? Did anyone bitch about your video and ask why you didn't shoot the whole show?
    Don't be ungrateful, I haven't seen any other RCMH online yet
    so just appreciate what you got
    (for free too)

    Very good recording. Brings back some great memories from last week. Pity your batteries ran out. You should have avoided that 99 cent store...

    Cure-concerts.de lists one recording of Radio City:

    Question is, where is it? Who has it? Does it have the complete encores? I'm praying and praying for this to show up....

    oh great recordings!

    and sadly it seems that they HAVE indeed scrapped the violin part of "Catch." And someone messed up the guitar solo a little...

    but fun times.

    Thanks Xuan for the recording! Great sound! Too bad your batteries died! I had the same problem near the end of the Chicago Show with my camera. No more cheap batteries for me or at least carry an extra pair! Duh I totally forgot to do. LOL!!!

    I had 4 sets of batteries, 1 set would last about 3 -4 songs. I would have to swap them out during each endings hoping that Robert would take long pause by. Sometimes I would not be able to swap the batteries on time before he started to play. At the end, I simply rand out of batteries.

    For the geeks who are interested: I use the Roland R-09 http://www.roland.com/products/en/R-09 with a 8GB SD card to record the MSG and RCMH shows. I would set the recording quality to 16bit/44.1khz wav file. After the show, I would import the wav files into Garageband to slice and export to mp3.

    oh yes, here is the full recording of the MSG show: http://www.megaupload.com/?d=4H1IDI4V
