Release Notes
Taper: Isaac McHelicopter
Equipment: Sony TCD-D100 DAT Recorder + Reactive Sound Spider condenser microphones
I set my microphones up on a fire escape outside the Colosseum window. I used a Sony TCD-D100 DAT recorder and Reactive Sound Spider condenser microphones, a combination I'd used inside other venues many times with excellent results. The sound this time was terrible, but I cleaned it up with EQ as best I could.

There are at least three versions in circulation of the same source: possibly the worst quality recordings I've heard. It's like it was recorded on a low spec dictaphone by someone standing outside the venue. Still, it's the only known source to surface to date. (Unfortunately it's also incomplete, as the encore is missing.)
2026 Update: Incredibly the taper of this show got in touch earlier this year to let me know the background of this recording. In his own words: "Your description of the recording quality is spot-on; it's truly awful, but I thought you might be interested in the story behind it...".
It turns out he didn't have a ticket for the show and so he set up microphones on a fire escape between Watford Town Hall and the Colosseum(!)
"I used a Sony TCD-D100 DAT recorder and Reactive Sound Spider condenser microphones, a combination I'd used inside other venues many times with excellent results. The sound this time was terrible, but I cleaned it up with EQ as best I could. It's not the only recording of the show though. I also put a Sony D8 DAT recorder in the bike shed at the side of the venue and left it recording while I was up on the fire escape. Now, if you think the circulating recording is bad, you should hear this one; it's a hundred times worse!"
