I was also surprised by the recorded backing tracks. While I knew this existed I was surprised by the quantity of it. Because of LBs coughing early in the show he missed several cues. The song songs sounded normal and when he re-entered it was hard to tell a difference. The grunting in IMW for instance is all recorded, all the "Tusk" shouts for both CM and LB are recorded. It appeared that almost all chorus parts for LB were recorded too, and he could choose to sing on top or just mouth as needed. There were even two times I saw CM try to sing a line at the wrong time and nothing audible came out. That could be her catching herself, but she sang multiple words each time it happened. I felt like we got to see behind the curtain a little. The guy at the soundboard must be a busy man. At least the quantity was new to me. I've never been that close. I have my doubts on some of the instrumentation too but I'm not sure.
