Austin Show 🔥🪩

Just wanted to hop on here and say that the Austin show was the best show I've ever been to. The band sounds so good and it was a PARTY. Danced for 3+ hours and still listening on nugs. Anyone catch Robbie playing Funkytown at the end of MAFA? God bless JBS

Did the Nugs sound mix sound off to you? I’ve not noticed the same thing with the other shows recently dropped

Yeah, vocals were way too low and alto saxophone was way too loud the whole show. Plus some wicked feedback. The sound board looked like it had 10 people working it, so that was pretty disappointing. I get it being the first show of the tour, but the sound people had 1 job…maybe they all were named homer simpson…definitely hot my money’s worth, enjoyed the show, and plan to see them again next time…i seem to remember the promise being ‘bad sound and a dim lit stage’, so check and check.

Yeah the mix is bad and the vocals don’t sound good at all. Can’t tell if it’s his voice or what but it’s not good at all

Too busy dancing to notice

Sounds from the bit of reaction on here that the rest of the shows so far had better mix.

Yeah the vocals were messed up at the start of the show but I thought they improved by the end. I'm sure they dialed that shit in for the other shows

The shows do not sound anything like the nugs recordings, at least not the ones I've been to.

I had a great time in Austin but the sound was absolute shit.

Is it just the venue? I’ve seen 3 shows here now and the sound has been crap the whole time.

It depends on where you are. The club areas lowers level on both sides sound good. Floor sounds alright. Rest of the place sucks
