Tapers Notes:
Had a brilliant seat, the perfect position for taping and my view of the stage
was excellent. I missed the first minute of the show. The intro began and I started
to get my equipment running (MD turned on and recording as well as setting levels).
Before I had finished the band hit the stage, the intro was really short and it
began same time the house lights went down. Anyways, I then had my battery box pulled
out of the jack so thats why part of track 2 is missing. Other than that, the rest
is complete. Its a shame really as this recording is really great. The band sounded
tight and on fire!!

Enjoy!!



Other Notes:
Styx were great, they put on a great show and I really enjoyed their set.
Thin Lizzy weren't bad either. Unfortunately, I didn't tape either band.
