Notes:
I recorded this nearly twelve years ago and found my master tape the
other day while looking for something else. At the time I traded it
on CDR to a few people by mail so I guess it's been "out there".
I was located around the middle of the auditorium in what turned out
to be a sonic sweet spot so I was pretty happy with the results. This
concert was part of Melissa's tour to promote the Breakdown album.
She was trying for big arena sound in smaller venues and I think she
achieved that. The haunting version of Scarecrow that closed the show
was my favorite. As she played the song members of the band left the
stage one by one until she was left alone. Then she left as the
audience sang the refrain a couple of times by themselves.
