Personnel:
 Warren Zevon - vocals, acoustic six and twelve string guitar, piano

Editing notes:
 Re-tracked entire show by combining with Nero's WaveEditor and then re-splitting with CD Wave.
 Deleted 19 seconds of audience applause at beginning of Track 01 and faded in with Nero's waveEditor.
 Deleted about 5 seconds at end of Track 07; faded out applause with Nero.
 Removed small glitch at 6:15 of Track 13.
 Made numerous volume adjustments using Nero's waveEditor (see notes below) in order to balance out the overall volume of the show.  Unfortunately, the original recording had some pronounced volume fluctuations, some spots were REALLY loud whereas other parts/tracks were difficult to hear.  Conservatively, I spent a couple hours trying to adjust the volume so that the show would play more evenly.  I tried to avoid having the show exceed peak volume as best I could, but some spots on the original recording were a bit "hot" and I tried to blend everything together as best as I could.  Overall, I'm extremely happy with the end result.

Volume adjustments:
 Track 01 0:00-3:42 +3dB
 Track 02 1:09-1:26 -1dB, 1:19-1:14 an additional -2dB.  Some clipping resulted from the volume reductions needed in Track 02.
