Notes
-------------------------------
Dave Rawlings...Gillian Welch...John Paul Jones (remember Led Zeppelin?)...Willie Watson (formerly of OCMS)...Paul Kowert (Punch Brothers). Despite the rather chatty crowd and a number of technical glitches - this is one of my favorite recordings, period. It was an amazing show...not to be missed if you're a fan of their music. The best version of "Billy" I've ever heard as well as a beautiful "Bells Of Harlem". Security (finally) tossed a nearby asshole toward the end of Billy and I did the best I could to minimize this on the recording. I also had to relocate during Queen Jane and this is a bit obvious. I had to make a number of rather rough cuts throughout due either to obnoxious drunks or a likely bad connector on my mics. That said, it's STILL a contender for my favorite recording ever! This was one of the most beautiful evenings of music I've ever had the pleasure of attending.

Here it is, folks - warts and all - enjoy!
