Mics were about 10 to 12 feet high centered right behind the soundboard - actually one step away. I had just purchased my D6 from Jack's Music in Red Bank. Thanks Andy. My best friend Bill introduces me to Kurt for the patch. This was my 2nd mini tour so far. This show was the 1st master aud for me and I was so glad for the connection created by Bill and Adam. I was 17 years old and still in high school on Easter break for the 1st shows 4 of this tour. Thanks Kurt where ever you are! At this point 12/12/12, I'll trust you'll like this show.ENJOY!!!!!!

Taper Notes:
View NotesNotes: There are a few awkward pauses between songs and a tragic tape flip near end of Birdsong (ouch!) at approx. 46:20 I faded in the end of Birdsong which continues for approx. another 45 seconds followed by an abrupt hard-start of Bucket. Otherwise generally smooth listening and very nice audio quality throughout. ***Just be sure to watch the low-mids and subs of your speakers, Phil and some Drums are very powerful on this recording!

Recording Notes: 1] The Sennheiser binaurals were pressure gradient "omni" type capsules designed to be worn on a human head or the supplied dummy head. This is one of the best representations of how they sounded in this type of live environment. this will sound BEST through headphones; through a stereo you may choose to increase bass slightly. 2] First set tape was stopped between every song break; we must have been trying to conserve batteries. Second set same method until after drums. + Tape flip ~41.05 3] First minute has recording level variations; the Sound crew doesn't get it set for levels until start of second song.
