This is the "unofficial" release of the How To Destroy Angels live show from 2013. Filmed in Chicago with some very high end cameras placed around the venue. It was released by both ThisOneIsOnUs and NIN Live. You can read my post about the evening here. One of the best experiences I've had and it was such a joy to meet up with so many tapers from the midwest to get this project started. Not only that, but have a collaboration of many people around the world to make this video happen!

Tapeworm48's (Source 4) was used for the HTDA: Live In Chicago release. This was mixed by DVYDRNS and the flat response of the Schoeps is great for post mixing. He did a really great job on this mix and it would rival any mixed board feed. Hopefully one day we might hear the soundboard recording of this show that was in the works for this release from the HTDA camp.

Taped the show just to tape it. Me and a bunch of other tapers were at this show taping/filming the show for the band last night. We got a lot of impressive footage and it may form into some type of release. This is really not that great of a tape just because it was on the highest balcony in the Vic and the whole left stack was barely noticeable. Sometimes the vocals are faint.. But I just tape the shows to have them for myself. There will be soundboard audio if there is an edit of the footage we have. But we also had another taper with some great mics that will be sharing their recording some time down the road. Thanks to all the tapers who came out yesterday and filmed the show! It was great to meet all of you.
