DIFFERENCES FROM D032/D032.su:
-different camera from same angle but closer to the balcony rail
-not as many close-ups, but steadier and less obstructed
-same excellent soomlos audio
-all new footage except for one fill

PERFORMANCE/HIGHLIGHTS/SPECIAL MOMENTS:
-loud pop as house speaker goes out @5:28:13 and stays out until 2:27:20; Dylan appears unfazed and continues to play
-terrific setlist with sweet harmonies from Larry and Charlie
-fire marshall comes on stage to clear fans from stage front before encores
-fine renditions of"If Dogs Run Free" and "Tombstone Blues"
-mean harp on "Drifter's Escape"
-terrific lead exchanges by Larry and Charlie on "Tombstone Blues" and "Cat's In The Well"

(ratings below are for VS 1)

DISTANCE/POSITION: 12 (good panning and zooming, but not as many close-ups as VS 2)

AUDIO: 15 (superb soomlos LB-3550)

STEADINESS: 13 (some shakiness at the start and between songs, but quite steady throughout performances)

HEADS/OBSTRUCTIONS: 13 (fans pass quickly back and forth in front of balcony rail, but not too distracting)

FOCUS: 13 (a bit soft at times, but good color and resolution)

EDITING: audio added to add applause to opening titles; audio boost needed when speaker blows on song 2; audio and video editing needed for the break before the encore and for the fire marshall's announcement; VS 2 needed for off-target part of song 6)

Late show, Source: soomlos, FOB, Center Left, Core-Sound > Sony D8, Transfer:, Sony D8 > Tascam CD-RW700 > EAC > Adobe Audition 1.0 > CD Wave > mkwACT > SHN, Notes:, * The house sound went out @ 2:31 of d1t03 and didn't come back on until 4:11 of d1t04, ^ During the break, before the encore, there was an announcement from the stage that the fire marshall was in the building and threatening to cancel the rest of the show unless everyone returned to their seats; bittorrent download 02/06; different recording than LB-3276 with similar sound quality that one being a little warmer and fuller sound; excellent sound [A]
