I guess this qualifies under performance.

Tonight my wife and I went to see Diamond Rio. Really nice theater, we had good seats. Second row. We had dinner and then went to the concert.

The band is a six time vocal group of the year winner. More number one hits than they could fit into the time. Musically tight.

The problem was, they were so loud it was difficult to hear those award winning vocals. Since the auditorium wasn't sold out, we moved towards the back about where the FOH was mixed. The vox were still muffled and down in the mix. You'd think that a group of that stature would have a live performance mix that sounded like their records.

Herb, sorry for the less than stellar concert experience. Hopefully you and the spouse could still sing "Meet in the Middle" out loud. That never gets old...

We watch multiple genres of music every evening via YouTube on our big screen with the full sound system. I intentionally select channels that are noted for good recordings ... none of the cell phone audience garbage. Several of the channels are studios where the song is recorded live. Some are live performance venues with the sound taken from the board. We are amazed at how frequently a notable band's stage mix is muddy and/or certain tracks too loud or too quiet. Even bizarre panning at times. But many groups always sound great. I have some experience mixing live performances at large festivals back in the day and it takes a lot of attention. Beats me how that can escape some artists.

Glad you enjoyed it anyway. My shot ears have not allowed us to attend a live performance in a decade.
