I was asked to reupload most of the recordings of FLA that were on the blog, in the process of doing it, I found this one. Thanks to gladcarrot for sharing on DIME some time ago.
Original Info File:
Recorder: Sharp MD SR60 Mic: Sony ECM-DS70P
Lineage: MD --> Audacity --> WAV (44,100 Hz, 16 bit, mono) --> dBpoweramp (compression level 8) --> FLAC
"Industrial Movement III"
opening acts:
Eprom Colony
Cyanotic
Dismantled
DJ? Acucrack
Die Krupps was suppossed to be on the bill but had visa trouble.
I got to the venue close to 10:00 becuase I was trying to avoid having to see a bunch of opening bands only to find out that the first of five "bands" just took the stage! FLA wasn't scheduled to take the stage until 12:15am but it wasn't until 1:10am that they did. This was the latest headlining show I have ever seen and was totally unacceptable
and unprofessional to play so late on a week night. I was at the same venue a couple months ago and the men's bathroom flooded the hallway. Did they fix it?
No, they did not. The Shelter is in the basement of a nicer venue, St. Andrews Hall which was not being used that night. Why didn't they use the nicer venue? We had a lot of rain last week and it felt like we were in a hot, wet, smelly, basement. About a third of all concert goers stayed outside most of the time. The door to the Shelter is in an alley right next to a pair of dumpsters which were
sitting in puddles of garbage water. Nasty place.
To quote Bill Leeb; "As you can see, we've been reduced to the basement. The basement of shit, puke, and piss, the toilets, the filth, the dirt and no air. Oh well, that's how it goes in this business."
Eprom Colony was a decent enough local band who are appearantly going to be opening for three more national acts this summer. For whom I don't know because they have virtually no online presence and have not updated their Facebook page since 2009. Big mistake guys.
I'd be happy to see them again. Cyanotic and Dismantled were not bad but both are very generic and unremarkable.
This was the same weekend as the Detroit Electronic Music Festival and Fatboy Slim was playing just down the street. That might explain the late show because I saw a flyer saying FLA was a DEMF afterparty. By the time DJ? Acucrack took the stage, it was already after midnight. They crowd, especially me, was not really in the mood for a DJ. For the record, DJ? Acucrack is the most pathetic excuse for a live show I have ever seen and unfortunately, I have seen him more than twice now. If I wanted to see a DJ spin, I would have gone to DEMF, not FLA.
Front Line came on after 1:00 am and thankfully put on a good show. They too seemed annoyed with the situation and they crowd that remained really got into the show. Keyboardist, Jeremy Inkel, kept yelling that he couldn't hear us which was kind of annoying since we were all dancing along and having a good time despite the shitty venue and time. It was my fourth time seeing FLA, six if you count Delerium ;)
