A slow 'sound check' was omitted from this recording prior to track 01.

Song titles in 'xx' above are not certain.  Other songs simply labeled 'zydeco' if unsure about name.

For anyone not familiar with the late night dance tent sets at Blue Heron, tradition has it that both Friday and Saturday nights a band goes on during or after the last main stage set, starting bewteen midnight and 1am, and usually plays until the glow of sun appears on the horizon.  This was Friday night (7-7-06 but into the wee hours or 7-8-06).Start time was after 12:30, end time after 4:30 am. Total length (not including sound check, approx 190 minutes).  Over the years these late night sets are usually zydeco or cajun oriented and have been played by the Donna the Buffalo band members (aka Buffalo Zydeco), Keith Frank, Steve Riley, Balfa Toujours, Creole Cowboys, etc.
