There were a few issues with recording both bands. The wind was blowing pretty good and I did not remember to bring my foam microphone guard to place over the Zoom H4n microphones. So, on both shows, the Zoom H4n did not get a good recording. I was also recording with a Zoom H2 and it didn't do any better of a job because it was in standby mode (I messed up).
This event was held in the FC Dallas Stadium/Pizza Hut Park Stadium venue. Picture an outdoor American football stadium and you know what the venue looked like. The sound on the north stage, the one Garbage played on, was the better sounding stage (or the main stage). However, with the Zoom H4n's audio not being good enough to overdub on this video, and with the Sony camera's microphone not being good for recording concerts, there is some crackling throughout a lot of the show that I can't do anything about. It's not the record popping, loud type, but it annoys me that it's there.
So here's a rundown on the Garbage show details, DVD details, and lineage details.

Now, back to the original blog post.
I tried to build a regular DVD with Adobe Premiere Pro CE5. I wanted one with menus and other features. But being new to this program, I ran into issues that I still haven't resolved. So in the long run, I just created the DVD without menus but I did add chapters between each song. Even though a cheaper program I have, AVS, would allow me to do all the things I wanted to do, I didn't want to use it this time because I'd have to output the audio as mp2 (instead of the original AC3) and the resolution/picture quality is better with Adobe's program.
I never use digital zoom because it messes up video. And I didn't use it here either. But the picture does get more blurry, due to distance from the stage in the stadium seats, as the day turns to night in the show. I didn't have issue with people in front of me or talking around me. That's a plus!
It was a great show that Garbage put on. And for fans, you should easily be able to enjoy this show. But it does have it's imperfections and isn't the production I'd hoped to be able to make.
Enjoy the show...
