Show notes:
What the FUCK was I doing taping this?
Well, longer story short, I have a great contact at the Fair. She hooks me up with Fair admission, parking, and show tickets, and I provide her copies of what I tape that she wants (which really isn't much).
This particular year was a pretty interesting run, that being this show / Seether / day off / Bachman/Turner with BOC / day off / Tesla.
Or, 4 shows over 6 days...probably $600 once you consider 2 tix per show, and all the fixins.
So I went down one day early (since I have a buddy from high school who lives less than 2 miles from the Fairgrounds, it's a 300+ mile drive each way for me), and I gots to say, this is a FUN show to listen to (just look at the setlist).
KC was in fine spirits (it was a beautiful sunny night, which he talks about, as it caused him to sweat like a stuck pig), somewhat funny, and his band was top notch!
Or, I've listened to this show many many times (great "housecleaning music").
The master is quite bassy, and we used severe EQ on the low end to make it manageable...check out the samples!
He goes by Dennis, but could go by "Mr. Sunshine" as far as I'm concerned (he did this one up begrudgingly, the opening sentence was his initial reaction after I sent it to him)/
Show him the love with some snatches, and some "thank yous".
I'll just get back to doesing what I does best.
