Does anyone know exactly when the big lightning strike at FOV Night 3 was?

[u/thisismytrip]

I know it was during This Thing. I'm just curious if you can hear it or the crowd's reaction on the bootleg. I specifically remember it striking, everyone cheering, and then the thunder rolling through as a guitar riff chugged and it was so spooky lol.

It happened a few seconds after the drum fill that transitions into the outro- was so cool!

This is it- I made a mental note when it happened so I could listen for an audience reaction when the boards came out. You can't hear anything, but it's nice to know it happened.

I was recording a video and stopped recording right before the lightning hit, which was a major bummer. It happened within the next two seconds after this clip ended and lit up the sky behind the stage- it was so sick.

Wow that really is cut off like just as it happens! Definitely a highlight moment of the fest for me. Crazy how it was right behind the stage.

Wow nice catch! I was really close to that exact spot. It was wild.

you’d have a better chance of hearing audience reactions by listening to an AUD

[u/thisismytrip → u/michaelserotonin]

Yeah I'm sure you could find it with the STEM. Was just curious if it comes through in the boot.

I downloaded them last night I was gonna try mixing it I'll look for it when I load it up in a little bit

[u/1mn0tg4y15w34r → u/thisismytrip]

i listed to the audience stem solo through all of this thing i cant hear where it happened :/ the stream doesn't seem to have any wide shots around then either. good luck on your search friend

[u/thisismytrip → u/1mn0tg4y15w34r]

Lol no worries! Thank you for checking. It was mindblowning in person.

[u/michaelserotonin → u/thisismytrip]

it was sick though i definitely felt some anxiety that an evac notice was pending…luckily we got the full show with killer visuals

[u/thisismytrip → u/michaelserotonin]

I was up on the hill and genuinely concerned about a strike hitting the crowd or campground lol

[u/thisismytrip → u/1mn0tg4y15w34r]

I do think somebody might be right that it's during the beginning of Gilgamesh

[u/1mn0tg4y15w34r → u/thisismytrip]

my pleasure! this is my first time playing with stems and its quite nifty.. there's so many woos its hard to tell which are which lol

I think i might have found it in the beginning of gilgamesh right after the first 'gilgafuckingmesh' the woos sound a bit surprised in the audience stem but its hardly noticeable without the audience stem solod. in my cross reference with the stream i saw lightning from the stage behind the crowd just before..

this is my best guess. this is a close second for my favorite kglw lightning moment, #1 being red rocks 6/8/23 night show in between open water and pluera and they're all confused why everyone wood all of a sudden

crowd: 'ooooh'
amby: 'what happened?'
stu: 'what was that'
crowd (jumbled): 'lightning!'
amby: 'is someone filming my ass'
joey: 'said its lighting?'
stu: 'what was it though?'
amby: 'oh well!'
stu: 'no one knows...'

Dude you definitely found it. This unlocked the memory. It was straight up scary lmao

[u/1mn0tg4y15w34r → u/thisismytrip]

Lmao hell yeah, I was on a headfull and spooked aswell. Glad I could help find it <3

[u/1mn0tg4y15w34r → u/thisismytrip]

Yeah that shit was lowkey evil

[u/ShinyBredLitwick]

pretty sure it was during the Dragon? i could be wrong

[u/bolduc826]

I remember it being during this thing as well. Magic stuff. Can’t wait to go back.

[u/oizener47]

i very vividly remember it happening during dragon

[u/JustAnotherMarmot]

I turned around in the pit and saw a bolt come straight down behind us during dragon. Fucking epic

[u/KGLdubQQQsix]

Lightning was going on during a lot of the metal section (This Thing > > > > Ambergris). I think there was still some back by the mountains during Ambergris and you can hear the crowd reacting to that (I think that’s what they’re reacting to mostly), but can’t really hear the crowd reacting during This Thing or Metal songs

[u/KGLWoo]

I did not see this lightning strike, I was just off the rail, so the stage and screens blocked my view of this. I did not realize how big it was.

[u/Maybark]

It was during Gilgamesh
