It's hard for me to say because I get notably different impressions of the sound as you move the microphone small amounts. The very beginning audience clapping sounds very different, I'll say that. 

Comparing the sound of your recordings to the direct file of the same music on headphones I get the impression of a lack of vocal presence, too much bass and highs. In my own experience I've found this can sound very nice on some music and especially at lower volumes.
