Seating was about 40' from the stage, about half way
between center stage and the right side of the theatre.

Artwork is included and a Roxio (7) Jewel Liner file; but
if you feel you can improve on what I have done, be my
guest. I wouldn't mind a copy though, if you do.

The only modifications made to the original signal was
fading in & out at the beginning and end of the show,
and normalizing (as a single file) to 98%.
I didn't fade out the end of disc 1, or, fade in the
beginning of disc 2 in case someone wants to change
where the split occurs. If you were to combine my show
with the 'Buffalo 2005-02-17' show, you could have a
complete show; and the sound quality is very close. It
looks like we both recorded with Mini-Disc.

(I decided to include d1t2 & d2t1 that are faded, for
those of you who want to keep the end of disc 1 where I
put it.)

When I got to the show I was told that Pat would be
playing about a 2h-45m show. At this point I knew I was
in trouble because I only brought enough blank media for
a little over 2 hours. As it turns out, I had to end the
recording at about the 2h-13m point.
This show is missing the last song of the set and the
encore.
I sincerely apologize for this; being unprepared was
very un-professional, not to mention embarrassing.
