TV On The Radio – 2006-05-05
May 6th, 2006I’ve always been a fan of TV On The Radio, but never had a chance to see them live. Last night I had a chance to rectify that so I did. The show was sort of annoying because they opened the doors at 8:00 and the first (and only opening) band went on at 10:00. I figured since the venue opened at 8:00 that there would be at least two opening bands to see, but Rachel and I just ended up sitting around the venue for an hour and a half while we watched people drink and waited. Bleh.
The recording turned out nice for a stealth job. No glitches that I’ve found so far and a good sound field. It’s a little low since I didn’t amplify it at all in Audition, but Foobar’s ReplayGain takes care of that for the most part. Enjoy.

EDIT: Someone who saw the setlist made two corrections to my original setlist. Tracks 9 and 10 are Wolf Like Me and Let The Devil In instead of the original songs I had listed (so make sure you re-tag with the correct names in the updated info file). I guessed based on the titles from the album leak but apparently some of the titles aren’t correct. Thanks to Jerry for the corrections.

I had to choose between TV On the Radio and Destroyer, and Destroyer won, so thanks for letting me listen to both

Thanks so much for recording this. I’ve seen TVOTR live twice now, and have been dying to have a recording of their live show. They’re one of the best live bands I’ve ever seen.
