This was the second of my two show run through Ohio. While the show didn't have a deep jam comparable to the Blossom Sally, there are some seriously good cuts on here, in particular the Tweezer and YEM. Regardless, I had a blast at the show and many thanks go out to my buddies who let me party down right behind the tapers. Thanks again go out to the tapers who got this show out so quickly. I think I counted 7 sets of mics at the show, so getting 6 of those sources up so quickly is fantastic. Thanks again!

Phish - 6/5/11 "Mound" from Phish on Vimeo.
Once again, there are several really, really good pulls here.
The MK4v source, as with the previous two nights, is just boomier than it was at Bethel. As a result, much of Trey and Page's work in the lower registers is overwhelmed by Mike. The overall effect is boomy rather than punchy. As a result, I would suggest passing on this source.
The DPA source, like the night before, is nice an punchy, but lacks the overwhelming bass of the MK4v's. It has a touch more bass than the KM150's, but still has nice separation of the instruments. This is a great recording and my favorite of the evening.
The CCM4 source has really nice bass response, though it sounds a bit boomy. While this isn't the best recording for the evening, it is the best CCM4 source I have heard all tour. Kudos to the taper for this one.
The MK41 source, like the CCM4's, has a nice full bass sound, but lacks definition in the lowest notes. This creates a muddiness in the lower mids and, like the CCM4's, a bit of boominess.
The CCM41 source has a really nice sound. The bass is not as overpowering as the MK4v source, though it does suffer from a touch of boominess. I would say this is the 3rd best source for the evening.
The KM150 source is again excellent sounding with great separation throughout the spectrum. The only difference between it and the DPA source is just a touch less bass. As a result, I go with the DPA's but the KM150 is a great sounding source in its own right.
Happy listening!
