Wild As The Sea 11. Drums A Go-Go [48:54] The costume contest was AMAZING!!! I've been to some killer costume parties before but never anything like this. The patio was full of very well thought out and elaborate costumes. Not the sort of things you buy at a Halloween supply warehouse. The dance floor was full of exhibitionists and Martyn makes a comment about it at one point. I had found a chair on one side just in front of the PA and recorded from there (hand holding the mic still). The PA was just in front of me which sounded good initially but once the speaker blew out I should have moved. Problem was that I was in the Twilight Zone after an early morning start with an all-day drive and then some drinks. Because of the distorted sound from the blown speaker the 3rd and 4th sets are not included here A side note is that this would be the last time I used my trusty Sony D-6 cassette recorder. It was dropped when a drunk careened into me from across the dance floor and the cover never worked right after that. Went digital and bought the D3 to replace it. So this was the end of a long run of sneaking cassette decks into concerts.
