Have you figured out that i'm a big Jude fan?I've posted on him a few times over the last year. Read those posts here, here and here.
I'd seen him a few times a couple of years ago in Los Angeles, at the Largo - a lovely little industry showcase/restaurant. Unfortunately the Largo, while a killer venue, take a very nazi-esque attitude to taping. So I've never managed to get a soundboard recording of Jude.
All that changed in October when he came through Texas. He was playing 3 dates - Austin, Dallas and Houston - all mid week. By some small miracle I happened to be in Dallas for work the day he was playing there, so managed to catch that show and the Houston show the next night.
Though the Houston show was significantly longer, the Dallas show was definitely the better of the two. There were about 50 (screaming) fans there, who crowded the stage and sang along to almost every song. Jude played a solid selection of songs that ranged across all his entire discography. He also took all sorts of fun requests. Unfortunately the only request he could not play was the one that I yelled out, Homerun Hillary (you can check out the studio mp3 on the second link I posted above.) Sigh.
Some of the best tracks of the night were songs from his brand spanking new record, Redemption - which came out in France a month or two ago - and which is finally available in the States at cdbaby.com - to check it out and buy it go here.
Couple of quick notes - the soundguy had added some delay onto Judes vocals, we realized it was too much during track 3 and minimized it. The Asshole Song is performed on the guitar - very cool change since its usually performed on the organ.

These are great quality...Thanks so much! I'm a huge Jude fan as well but haven't seen him in sometime (even though I'm in LA and have been to Largo a bunch of times).
Thank you for sharing his music. I caught Jude in San Francisco 10.18.06 and you can see my footage on youtube.com
check it out if you haven't yet :D

Okay - the GEEK in me wants to know your taping gear info. Thanks for sharing awesome soundboard taping - what a Christmas treat.
i use a microtrack 24/96.
i ran RCA outs or 1/4 inch outs (i cant remember) from the board, into the 1/4 ins on my microtrack.
then i hit record. at the end of the show i hit stop ;)

Very nice... I should know I was there. I really wasn't a Jude fan to that point but the 'live' show was great.
*gear envy*
