Our Lady Peace Canadian Tour Ticket Giveaway!

So I received an e-mail today stating that I could win front row tickets to any OLP show for this tour by answering one question... how many GB's were used to record Healthy in Paranoid Times... I remember knowing this, but thought I'd ask here for quick responce. Everyone should have gotten this e-mail if you signed up with the site.

No, really... it's 6! Everyone go enter the contest now! But make sure you enter more than once for each city

I've done full band recording before, and 6000 is probably right. Each song isn't like it is on your computer where its 3,000 kB. Each individual track of guitar is recorded separately and can be anywhere from 10-20,000 kB just for one part. That's one guitar part for one song, and they don't record it once but several times. Add in every other instrument, drums is a huge one on its own, and vocals that they record several times over... it adds up.

I think it was 6.000 bites. The band went low-quality, all the way.

Yeah. They probably keep it at 24bit/96kHz until they're mixing it all together.
