If you are looking for a balanced sound, you want to go middle. I have been far right and left, and the sound has been iffy. But, if you are there for the view, well............................ 2.gif

We arrived just before the show began, unfortunately, so I didn't see anyone I recognized as we walked in. It's a long drive from the north side of town. We would have tried to show up at a meeting place, but my wife was tied up at a work function downtown during the day. And I forgot how awful it is to get in and out of this venue. I wish they'd play anywhere but that place next time Rush comes to town. I hope you guys all got to meet up and have some fun without me, though. Next time.
