View NotesYONDER MOUNTAIN STRING BAND February 10, 2001 (Saturday) Patterson Hall @ Sierra Nevada College Incline Village, NV Source: Sandy Alexander's Neumann km54 mics (7.5' up, dfc, fob but barely) > Lunatec V2 > Tascam DA-P1 patch (16-bit/44.1kHz) Lineage: master DAT > PC harddrive (via Panasonic SV-800 > digi-coax cable > M-Audio 2496 soundcard) > Sound Forge 6.0 (minor edits, normalized to -16dB, fades added) > CD Wave Editor (tracking) > FLAC Frontend (sector boundaries verified, level 8) Recorded & mastered by Pastor Tim Christensen with deep love & in memory of The Sandman. Dedicated to the usual suspects from "The Three-Quarters Condo." NOTES: - This is an upgrade from earlier CDR's that were given to a few friends back in Jan 2002 ^ Set 1 is slightly overmodulated, esp the lows; some feedback issues too; levels adjusted in Set 2. Hines was working in a very unfriendly sonic environment that consisted of a large box of a room with huge glass windows from floor to ceiling, a 12-inch "stage," and a mediocre PA at best (or worst as the case may be). * Traffic Jam dedicated to open-then-closed-then-open-then-closed-then-open snowbound I-80 and all who drove it. QUOTABLE YONDER: JA: We love California, and its cotton fields. Girl in crowd: But this is Nevada! JA: I know, but we love California... and its cotton fields. AA: We could change it and sing Nevada Ganja Fields. JA: You can't even say that here. AA: You can't say ganja? YMSB: Adam Aijala: guitar, vocals Ben Kaufmann: bass, vocals Dave Johnston: banjo, vocals Jeff Austin: mandolin, vocals THE STORY This was the last of four nights on the road with Yonder that had brought me from my home in Montana to LaSalle's (Chico, CA) > Cafe Tomo (Arcata, CA) > The Fillmore (San Francisco, CA) > Patterson Hall @ Sierra Nevada College (Incline Village, NV), but the pre-story of this night was the drive to Incline itself. Early snow had fallen heavy & wet on I-80 during the previous night and even into the day of the show as two VW Vanagons loaded with friends like John Roach, Deb Freesmeier, Sandy Alexander, Stella Fleming, Chris Stone, Bri Bowers, and a few others (myself included) set out from the north bay are under the warning that I-80 was closed to thru-traffic. Our intrepid drivers kept going despite warnings at each gas station that there was no way we would get through. It was a long slow slog up over the Sierra Nevadas, but sure enough the road was opened as we got close to the pass, and we BARELY made it into Incline Village in time to run from the vans, set up our recording gear, and be ready for the very first song. Seriously, we made it by minutes. (This is also why the band dedicates Traffic Jam to our pair of VW's.) Sandy Alexander's Neumann km-54 mics were set up back by Ben Hines and the soundboard, but the hard acoustics of the room (floor-to-ceiling windows and an angled ceiling in a long, narrow room) made it a less-than-ideal soundscape. Nonetheless, the Sandman kept making adjustments and to this day his source is the only one I've ever run across and I'm glad my DA-P1 was patched out of his via coax. (There were two other tapers with their own mic rigs, but those tapes have never surfaced and they were in the same area we were.) The brittle acoustics were more than compensated for when the snow began to fall wet & heavy again during the show. Truly, one of the most visually beautiful Snow On The Pines that I will remember as long as I live. This show is lovingly dedicated to the man who made SOOOO many fine recordings for us -- Sandy Alexander, you were a dear friend and I will always be grateful for your friendship -- and to my friends from "The Three-Quarters Condo." Remember, you should always add cumin when making massive amounts of guacamole for your friends. . Much Love, + PT, 05-03-2015 .
