Comments:
* Only flaw of the recording is that the encore suffers from signal dropout with most of "The Same Thing" being cut. I crossfaded these together as smoothly as possible into one track using Wavelab 5.
Tremendous thanks to Derek for loaning me his master DAT for this transfer.
This recording should be freely traded and NEVER SOLD.
