Mics on backpack shoulder straps, standing at the barrier 10-15 ft from the right stack, directly in front of Stephen McBean. Crowd was pretty mellow, so no talking/shouting to interfere with the music.
Taped, transferred, tracked by Olaf Nelson.

There isn't much interesting in the soundcheck, but since I recorded it, I'm keeping it with the rest of the set. I'm sure there are obsessive individuals out there who will want it. If you want to save bandwidth or disk space (87MB), don't download it.
There are a bunch of photos in the folder--I didn't take most of them, I just stole them from flickr. Several of these are really good shots. There's also a map of the festival site, taken from the Block Party's website. The 5 or 6 photos I took aren't particularly good, but I'm putting them in the folder anyway.
There's also a video of the song "Wucan" shot with my digital camera in video mode. The video's pretty decent, though the sound is less clear. Not horrible, though. It adds 400MB to the folder, so skip it if you don't want it.
Please trade as audio cd or flacs. Avoid sharing or distributing as mp3 or other formats using lossy compression. NOT FOR SALE BY ANYONE.
