Okay, I'm glad to hear the first tracks off the North American tour from New Orleans. The lineup sounds great. So I thought I would start a thread giving some details on what I plan.
My location for both Miami shows is on the grass ($25 tickets each), so don't expect soundboards.
Assuming security allows it, I plan to bring my 2013 Sony Cybershot camera and record in high resolution ts format. Last year I taped Taylor Swift in Tampa (for my wife -ahem-) and I mostly recorded two teenage brats behind us singing every single song completely out of tune. The video looks great, however.
As a backup, I cannot bring my Sony digital WAV audio recorder, the $99 device was stolen from my seamail shipment upon my return from Australia. Good thing I carried my camera on the flight. So I will be bringing as a backup recorded my old Sony 192 kbs recorder. Yes, the one that I recorded the 2008 Cure show in Tampa. It's just a backup, but at least we'll have something if the camera fails.
The camera has superior stereo recording, I may simply not care about the video as we are in the grass outside the amphitheatre. The audio is what matters to me, I'm sure someone in the front row will give you good footage of the band. I want something I can play in my car, so I trust the audio on the Cybershot. It does a decent job of filtering out local noise (unless at a Taylor Swift stadium show).
So, that's the plan. Wish me luck and good charges on my three camera batteries.
