The Story:
I was recovering from surgery and could not attend the 2012 show in Houston. It
was my mission to make one of the remaining shows after hearing the rave review
of the Houston gig from my coworker. Chicago and my hometown area of Detroit
were the front runners until I saw tickets availabe on StubHub for the Nashville
show. This was particularly appealing as Nashville is in my work territory and I
can always dig up some work meaning airfare, hotel, car rental and meals would
be paid for. I mentioned this plan to my coworker and we decided to make it
happen. We dredged up reasons to be there and arrived Monday evening, the day
before the show. We both put in an honest day's work and proceeded to meet up at
Broadway Brewhouse Downtown before the show on Tuesday.
The atmosphere at the brewhouse was great! They were
playing the studio version of The Wall loud and proud and people were singing
along and drumming on the tables. My coworker and I were minding our own
business sampling some local beers when in walked typical Floyd Rulz Dude. He
proceed to buy a couple or three rounds of Jaeger Bombs for us and then stepped
his game up to a round of Irish Car Bombs. At this point, Floyd Rulz Dude was
beligerently insistant that we do another round of my choice on him. Being one
to never back down from a drink challenge, and one to want this guy to shut the
hell up, I recommended a drink called a Mexican Drive By. It's a variation of
Irish Car Bomb that I came up with one foggy night because the local watering
hole in Houston did not have all ingredients needed for an Irish Car Bomb,
substituting Cuervo 1800 for Jameson, Tecate for Guiness and dropping Kahluha
instead of Bailey's. That was the last I heard or saw of Floyd Rulz Dude after
he staggered away convinced we were insane. Others who witnessed the events,
laughed and bought us another beer. It was now time for the show.
Bridgestone Arena is 1.5 blocks from Broadway Brewhouse. The streets were packed
with fans and we were seated about 10 minutes before the show. I had no
intention of recording the show because I just wanted to chill out and enjoy it
but it quickly became apparant that I had to at least record a piece of it for
posterity and to show some friend who weren't as fortunate as we were. I didn't
have much battery life left but started recording on my iPhone 4 during ABITW2
and after an accidental shut off, managed to get through Young Lust before the
battery died. My buddy leant me his iPhone 4S to capture Run Like Hell to the
end and band introductions.
Included in this torrent is an mpeg-2 edit of the
raw mov files as described in the lineage, as well as the raw mov files in case
anyone wants to use them for a frankenshow at some point. I was not goint to
post these but decided to since I haven't seen anything else for this date.
Hopefully a more complete recording surfaces because you can see a lot of people
recording in the clips I captured. Until then, enjoy my first attempt at
recording and torrenting.
