The show starts out with a bit of source tape damage, but if the
listener is patient, the sound problems clear up and the show, overall,
is of very good sound quality. It is also one of the finer performances
of The Wall by the
band.
One of the funnier moments in RoIO recording happens during "Nobody
Home." At approximately 2:28 into the track, where a female security
employee asks our taper, "Is that a pipe you've got there?" The taper
pretends not to hear her, so she asks him again. He responds: "No, it's
a microphone." Despite this admission, she lets him continue to tape. I
guess taping is not as "high" a crime as smoking pot!
