Default Looking for 1990's videos or audio

Hi,
I don't post here often, but I read this group every day. I attended the Birmingham show on the 16th and thoroughly enjoyed it. It was my third Lightfoot show. The sound mix was better than last year in Nashville. However, they could stand to pump up the overall volume a bit. The band was frequently drowned out by people talking, and to me thats just a little too low. But, his voice was leaps and bounds better in Birmingham than in Nashville.

Could anyone that can send some 1990's video or audio PM me? I really enjoy hearing stuff from the WFY period, but anything from 89-99 would be great.

Thanks,

That's been an irritant for me for quite awhile. I don't quite understand why they don't pump up the house volume - the musicians have their own monitors, so it wouldn't affect what they hear anyway, even if Gord doesn't want it too loud.

I recall at the November 2006 Massey Hall show looking at the sound system and remarking how small it seemed compared to most concerts I've been to. I'm not sure whether they're trying to cut costs or don't realize the system isn't adequate for the room, but it was again too quiet.

A refreshing difference was when I saw Gord at Niagara's Fallsview Casino ... I think they have their own system there and the soundman made sure Gord was cranked up nice and listenable. Just the way we like it.
