This was the first show I experienced this setup, before that the PA always stood on the stage, blasting good music into my ears. Mr.Big played a fantastic set, they had excellent sound and seemed to have good fun as an opener for Aerosmith. This is uploaded to celebrate the reunion and hopefully I can experience them again, because good musicians "don't grow on trees". Yes, I did record Aerosmith too, but the sound is not as good as this... Oh! A couple of minutes into the first song I realize I've set the mic on 90¡ and not 120¡ angle, so I adjust it there and it sounds perfect! Let me know what you think! Please respect my wish of NOT spreading this recording in ANY LOSSY FORMAT - but leave it as it is! By the way....
