Taper Notes:
This one has an issue - my gear got knocked off my table by some doofus who banged into a waiter, who banged into my table. I was able to pull a really fucked up audio file off the SD
card, using some disk utilities. The speed was all screwed up, so I spent quite a bit of time trying to get it to sound right, to my ears, using Goldwave. I have some Ian recordings
from the same time period, in the month or two before and after. I used the Time effect in GoldWave, picked a few different songs/spots in the show and tried to match to the other
recordings by ear. The opening riff of Saint was one of my reference points. Just constantly listening and fine tuning to try to get the right sounding speed of that drum and the
keyboard. It really was just a lot of trial and error.

Mastering Notes:
No idea whether the speed issue was caused by the gear hitting the floor, or by the extraction using the disc utilities. In any case, flaco put a lot of work into speed correcting this
and I certainly don't have the ear required to do any better, so we went with his speed corrected version as the basis for this show.
The end of "All The Young Dudes" and all of "Goodnight, Irene" are missing. The "slow" file hit it's 2 GB size limit and it appears the recorder didn't automatically start a new file
like it usually would.
