Taper Notes:
View NotesNote: It's a nice recording, apparently from the floor, and doesn't match current Auds. Unfortunately, there were some small issues with errant tape-flips, mic-cable drops, crowd intrusion, plus Drums was paused-out entirely. All these patched with ID-140903, listed below. Thanks Jon Pasternak & Charlie McGuth for organizing this project! Patch list: Rooster 0:00 > 0:30 and 8:48 > 8:53. Minglewood 4:17 > 4:23. High Time 0:00 > 0:04. Jam 5:11 > 5:37.

Taper Notes:
View Notes- The show was originally scheduled for 05-07-1981. - WavMerge and CD-Wave used to make new track-ID's. - Soundforge used for the patches, and to make fades. - TLH used for SBE-OK, lossless compression, and checksums. - Tape flips covered with patches taken from ShnID-17697. - Patch in Rooster (in crowd noise at track end), 9:17 > 9:54. - Patch in Dire Wolf, 0:00 > 0:08. - Patch in Jam, 0:39 > 0:55. - Patch in Drums, 6:30 > 6:37. - Because filler is from SBD, this AUD is currently streaming-only
