*with Lisa

Notes: All the original master DATs suffered from a source glitch; the XLR left channel inputs were problematic leaving one-sided drop outs and digi-noise on the first two tracks. Situation Pete was off doing other things when the band hit the stage so the tapes don't start until the "hurts my ears to listen" line in Jack Straw. I was able to fix most problems with Cool Edit 1.2 but some short diginoise remains in Jack Straw and at the end of Deal.

First I took the Jack Straw from the 10-11-02 show and used the first minute (splice at 00:56) as a patch. There is 1 second of diginoise at 1:04. At 2:50 I lifted 41 seconds of the Right channel and replaced the Left with it to get rid of dropouts and diginoise. at 3:46 and 4:05 I removed small sectioons of solo to remove major diginoise. At 5:20 I lifted the Right channel again till the end of the track

Next I took TLEO and lifted the Right track for the first 1:25. From 2:18 - 2:22 and 4:41 - 4:50 I had two-channel dropouts which had to be patched using the TLEO from 12-29-02.

On Deal I used Cool Edit Click and Pop eliminator to bring down the diginoise spike at the final crescendo. Some diginoise still remains.

Finally, Black Peter suffered from dropouts throughout the song until into the solo. I lifted the Right channel and replaced the left for this whole section.
