Set:

Review: Shot from very close to the stage slightly to the right of Kurt. The camera work is extremely shaky due to an energetic crowd. The picture is seldom still for more then a few seconds at a time and there are often heads and bodies in the way. There are however some great close shots of Kurt and Krist, Dave is hardly seen except during the destruction. The picture is very clear and sharp, the caps probably don't do it justice as some appear blurred but this is due to the camera moving. The audio is also very good, the only downside with it is that often the audience singing drowns out Kurt's.
