I just spoke with Vince’s Front of House engineer, Hugh Johnson. The show that you watched is a re-broadcast of a show that took place right after Vince’s album project “These Days” was released (about 4-5 years ago). Hugh mixed both the 5.1 and a separate Stereo mix that were provided to HDNet. They apparently are still broadcasting the wrong mix for this show. Hugh has, over the years, received many very positive comments for his mix of this show. He appreciated finding this out and plans to have someone notify HDNet to let them know that they need to change the mix to the correct one. Thanks for bringing this to our attention.

Thanks for your comment. I can try to find out who mixed this and see what may have happened, if you are interested to know.

I watched it tonight on HDNet and was very disappointed by the vocalist audio (Perhaps it sounded good/correct in 5.1) but the singer(s) were very off mic sounding. After listening for awhile I surmised the 5.1 center channel didn’t make it to the stereo mix.

Hi there, I was at the concert and really enjoyed it, we travelled from England and were not disappointed.
Do you have a set list handy? would love one as I heard some great artists that I was unfamiliar with and want to follow them up. Especially Al Anderson and JJ Cale. Thanks
