This year’s Nightmare Before Christmas was curated by Godspeed You! Black Emperor. The band played all 3 days. Unfortunately I was unable to record the first day. This is the second day.

I had heard that on the first day, the band had taken to the stage early – had started a drone – at least 10 minutes before the scheduled start time. As a result I tried hard to get there early, however there was quite a queue and so I didn’t enter til approx 15 minutes before the scheduled start. As expected the band had started a drone, so this recording fades in as I’m walking to the middle.

I manually inserted a split after track 4, to avoid the mt2496 doing bad things (since I knew it would be a long set). No music was lost, just a few seconds of applause.

Very dark set. After the gig I heard that the setlist was quite different to the first day.

Slight crackling on a handful of occasions. This recording also available in 24-bit.
