Thanks to SJ Nix -- superfan and heart of Maid News Network -- for saving me from a comedy of errors, with a last minute ticket!   / 1449304292045567  

And Now Jim's Dreary Whingefest™:
Nonideal vantage point -- spent about 20-40 hours in post improving video steadiness, but coulda been better
HOB Anaheim does have an awesome side rail area elevated 3-4 feet from main floor -- makes all the difference in reducing audience obstruction
MV88 stereo audio for first 7 songs. On-camera stereo mic afterwards, due to the MV88 Lightning bitstream being too easily mechanically disrupted in live audience settings. Unfortunately this mic has less high end, vs, the MV88's beautiful flatness out to 20kHz.
Would have used a full-frame sensor 4k60fps Sony FX3 / 5x power zoom lens rig if 'detachable lens cameras" were allowed -- less blowouts, better color depth and effective resolution

Fortunately, all these nonidealities don't change the Maids' impossibly amazing musicianship and songwriting. And I'm happy I captured Kanami's guitar solo on Daydreaming--the best song in the world.
