I think he used Neumann mics, but there's been quite a bit of traveling since, so I dont want to write it down as if it were gospel on cement. Capice? --Nice sounding tho. --The Late Great Warren Zevon is on this. --That Mystery Box with the Mint Tulips...cant see how that could have gone over in a positive way..... vg NOTES (2025-12-05): --I added the mics source info & location to the info as, based upon the clues given by Dolphinsmile in his notes, this is obviously correct (gathered from shnid=91026) --the guests during the Furthur Finale Jam are not 1000% confirmed, but certainly some/most of them are joining RatDog on the stage during this time (at least during certain tunes of the jam), based upon who would join during other dates on this tour, etc. If anyone knows exactly who & when was (or was not) on stage during this Furthur Finale Jam section, won't you please chime in & let us all know?? --according to tunabase (https://www.tunabase.com/setlists/1996/19960707.html), the guests during the Furthur Finale Jam were (please note that this resource only denotes info for "Little Wing" & "Werewolves Of London" as that's when members of Hot Tuna were guesting, etc.): --------for "Little Wing": NO Bob Weir; Bruce Hornsby - keys; Jack Casady - bass; 2 Los Lobos - guitar, lead vox; Pete Sears - accordion; ???? - bass; ???? - drums --------for "Werewolves Of London": Weir; Zevon - keys, lead vox; Hornsby - accordion; Hornsby's Horns; Michael Falzarano - guitar; Mickey Hart; ???? - drums; ???? - bass --------for my part, I listened thru this Furthur Finale Jam closely & I definitely hear the horns clearly on t12 ("Johnny B.Goode"), t14 ("Werewolves Of London") & t16 ("Not Fade Away"), so that would be John D’earth, Bobby Read, Steve Berlin...& I hear Hornsby during it (mostly/all on accordion) & Hidalgo & Kaukonen taking solos, etc (& Hidalgo also as lead vox on "Little Wing")...I'm sure Mickey was there during this time as well along w/ Giovanni "Mañenguito" Hidalgo & Sikiru Adepoju almost assuredly joining as well...I also hear a female vox in t15 ("Knockin' On Heaven's Door"), so this could either be Debbie Henry (Debra L.Henry) (from Bruce's band) or one (or more) of the Mint Juleps (Sandra Charles [Sandra V.Charles], Debbie Charles [Debra Charles], Elisabeth "Lizzie" Charles, Marcia Charles, Julie Isaac, Debbie Longworth [Deborah Longworth]) (from Mickey Hart's Mystery Box) --the artists on this date for the Furthur Festival 1996 were (from start to finish): Alvin Youngblood Hart; Bruce Hornsby; John Wesley Harding; Mickey Hart's Mystery Box; Los Lobos; Hot Tuna (acoustic); Hot Tuna (electric); RatDog; Further Finale Jam; also the Flying Karamazov Brothers served as emcees & entertainment between acts --https://thefurthurproject.wordpress.com/furthur-festival-1996/7-7-96-meadows-music-theater-hartford-ct/ --this venue was originally planned to be called "Connecticut Centre For the Performing Arts" during planning & construction, but then opened in summer 1995 as "Meadows Music Theatre" (1995-2000); then "ctnow.com Meadows Music Theatre" (2000-2005); "New England Dodge Music Center" (2005-2009); then "Comcast Theatre" (2009-2013); then "Xfinity Theatre" (2013-present [2025])...it is also known as "Meadows Music Centre" & "Meadows Music Theater" --https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Xfinity_Theatre
