2010-10-30 - 4th and B, San Diego

[kagenaki koe]

i got to the venue early so i managed to get parking at the venue, took pic of the gear when i paid for parking



i wasn't planning on doing any recording so i only had my cell with me, i was fairly sure my shooting was crap, but i thought i'd share these vids anyway (i didn't convert these or anything, they are all in 3gp format):

1) after i parked, i went to the front of the venue (the doors were open since they were either moving some stuff in or out) and music started playing so i snuck in to see who it was. I was there for about 2 or 3 minutes before i went outside (posted it in this thread), then went back and decided to record the rehearsal (sorry, i was trying to be discreet, i held the camera by my stomach so it's not aimed or focused on anything). I didn't know Karl was sick that day, but his voice was definitely clearer during the run thru. When I stopped recording, I turned around and there were about 5-7 people further behind me (i guess a few other dirties were there?). It would be another 4 or 5 minutes before one of the 4th&B guys kicked us out.

2) the first 24 minutes of the show (audio/video quailty isn't that good, i've never really used the video feature on the phone). It's split up into 4 files cuz I couldn't make up my mind whether I should just watch the show or keep recording so there's about a few seconds up to a minute gap between the files (the 3rd link is 800 MBs)

I'll leave the links up just for a week, you guys are free to do what you want with them.

Reading back on this thread, I guess Rabbitwork was the guy I was chatting with at the front of the line and at the very front of the show. As i was leaving the parking lot, i spotted Nate & Jillian from Omaha (don't know if they're dirties, but they were with us at the front of the line) and I offered them a ride back to their hotel.

Also, they were handing out the video cards sometime after they opened the doors (got mine when i was hanging out at the front of the stage...but there were only a handful of people inside the venue at that point.)

Finally home after a crazy weekend. Back to back Underworld Saturday and DJ Shadow Sunday has me aching but happy.

Thanks Chris M for suggesting the meetup location! Vin de Syrah is a really excellent spot, though I wish more dirties would have shown. I did meet Pricey on the street just before heading in, though
Great to meet sockman & his girl, RisePigRise, and especially Jon Paul...dude can party
I wanted to head up to the boxes to find ultradave, but couldn't get up there with the genadmin ticket, and kept an eye out for a Clark Kent Andy, but never found one.

The show itself was great! I think Karl was as bummed as us that he wasn't feeling great, but his vocal certainly didn't seem affected at all. As mentioned before, it was both strange to see him exit the stage for NuTrain, Rez, etc. but also a nice change of pace that let Rick and Darren really shine.

Dirty Epic into Moaner...stunning!

btw, I've got two extra download cards. Anyone who was at a show that didn't get one, PM me.

(also, longest show thread ever?)

while making my image selections and seeing the sincere expression of karl's under the weather smirk, it suddenly occurred that i am in fact a hyper critical jerk for my earlier remarks. these guys did so well given the nature of the circumstances... class act as always.

glad you made it out! sorry about flaking, trying to lead a heard of people will certainly derail your plans as i have now learned. did you get confused with opening the door to the bar by chance? their little side gag never ceases to amuse.
