What a surprise I have here today!
I had recently read in the newspaper that Roger had just played in a small
church in Old Lyme, CT. Which was just in the next town over from where I live.
I had no idea Roger was going to be so close by. I thought what is he doing and
why would such a huge rock star be playing for such a small crowd in a tiny town
that never has musicians playing? Well except that time back in 1991 when I saw
Foghat on the beach. Otherwise having Roger Waters in Old Lyme was strange and
exciting. Then out of the blue, late last night I get a file transfer from my
taping friend Ken G. (who is now retired) and if I thought he went to a lot of
concerts before, seems to now be attending concerts at a fevered pitch. Which is
a bonus for any music fan/collector. Ken says security was breathing down
his neck and a strict no recording of any kind policy. The recording came out as
good as you might expect with a somewhat quiet stage volume and louder crowd
response. It's cool that GE Smith is involved, delivery some great electric
guitar. Ken did all the tracking, I did some additional editing by lowering the
crowd cheer and boosting the music.
Big thanks goes out to Ken for his recording and efforts.
Enjoy
