The preamp and mic on the tascam are good enough for me.

If you have a nosebleed seat, take the offered advice and leave the recorder at home and just enjoy the show.
I had ZERO issues at the Izod Center in the Spring. There was no search at all. I did go in with the GA floor crowd so they may have skipped the search to get us in quicker.If you want to be extra sure they don't find it and they are doing a pat down, but it in a place where they can't pat you down due to legal reasons (I'll leave it up to you where that might be).Also as stated before if you don't have external mics, I wouldn't bother. Springsteen in NJ will with 100% certainty be covered by someone with a nice rig from a good spot. I don't have the ideal spot to record in Denver, but I'll probably roll anyway since Springsteen isn't huge here. I did roll last time in NJ because I was in the ideal spot. Saw him a few nights later at MSG and didn't bother because my seats weren't great (side stage) and I knew that at MSG there would be plenty of other tapers (and there were).The only time I roll for Springsteen is if (a) I have the ideal location or (b) I'm going to a show I'm not sure will be covered.
do you think 131 front row will be good enough? the tickets and me deciding to bootleg were last min decisions. 800 bucks for 4 tickets. yikes! so worth it though.
