Show notes:
My 2nd and last show on this tour. I was lucky enough to meet some people whom I had been in contact with for a very 
long time. I Liked this night over night one. The band seemed to be a little more relaxted and had more contact with 
the crowd.

Recording notes:
The most important part in the whole of this was done by a couple of people the night before. Only thing I needed to 
do that previous night was finding the Bono-mic (which wasn't located yet). The majority of the tapers didn't put to 
much energy in searching for it because it's not a spectacular feed. For mixingpurposes it's one of the most important 
ones if you ask me. After ten minutes of active searching I found it, being confirmed by another taper.

Night 2 was a night which I wont soon forget. In the end I ruined all my recordings due to my own stupidyness. 
Thankfully enough my buddy Heitelan_Taper was a couple of sections at my right running the same rig. His recordings came 
out great, with only some minor fuzz here and there. MLK_Luke was generous enough to share me his audience recording. 
It was nice meeting you after such a long time (+10yrs)!

Mixing notes:
My first full-mix of a JT2017-show. This is a mix of a couple IEM feeds with the original Schoeps audio. So it contains 
the 20sec gap in the middle of Sunday Bloody Sunday (if you listen closely you can hear it). 
The crowdnoise isn't that intrusive on this one. There are a couple of recordings out there that have more crowdnoise, 
but since I ruined my own recordings, I had to give something back to the people who did produced.

Unfortunately the B-mic was taped with a receiver with less headroom, resulting in some compressed levels.
I had to repair that first to get a smoother sounding vocal. Mixing it in has given me more headaches. Finding the right
balance between the instruments and the vocals is/was hard. Hope you'll like the result. 
I've done some tricks to get the metronome and counts out, but you still can hear remnants at particular songs. 
Still needs some practicing I guess. As said before Edge's feed suffered from a little fuzz here and there. It's not 
that disturbing, so I decided to leave it as it was. Repairing it would for sure damaged the music.

In the end there are a couple of people I need to thank. Firstly Heitelan_Taper and MLK_Luke. Without these people
this mix wouldnt have existed! Last and certainly not least.. Hoserama. With all your advices and tips over the past
couple of years this result wouldnt have sounded the way it does now. Thanks again for the your patience & understanding,
and just being great!
