Hello Everyone

Let me begin with some tech notes for you purists out there. Acoustic shows present interesting editing challenges. The performance is inevitably quieter than the enthusiastic crowd, especially between songs. My first course of action in editing this recording was to employ a click suppressor to virtually eliminate the clapping of the people closest to me. I then used the compressor to hammer the audience noise between songs, I may have been somewhat aggressive with this in spots but not during any of the songs. Lastly, I attenuated each song 2db. I think everything came out nicely.

Enjoy!
