Mastering Notes:
Melissa did a fair bit of talking at the start of some songs, while the band laid down a groove underneath. I've tracked the show to include her talks at the start of the tracks, rather than having them as separate "Chat" tracks.

Show Notes:
This was probably, next to Third Eye Blind, my least anticipated show of the year. Between the faux Hendrix tones and the preening and posturing, it was 2+ hours of sheer hell. The sad part is, for 80% of the people there, it was the highlight of their decade, if not millenium. Fortunately, for ME fans, it sounds pretty solid.

She was so weaksauce, the setlist I got from the soundman post-show said *Anchorage* on it.

Speaking of solid, do Dennis a solid by telling him "thanks". I'm sure he enjoyed doing this one up even less than I enjoyed taping it.

I'm still fucking off. Cope.

More, later...
