Taper Notes:
A little more than a month before the show I emailed Billy Maddox, Paul Thorn’s FOH sound engineer and asked about audio recording. I was told that Paul Thorn allows audience, but not soundboard recording. I arrived at soundcheck, about 5 pm, and received permission to hang my Neumanns. Billy asked me if I could send him the recording after the show before it was uploaded, and I said sure. He emailed me that he was amazed with the clarity of the recording and also of the accurate stereo separation. He thanked me and said that the recording would help him to better mix the band live. This was the first time that I have seen Paul Thorn and I thought he put on a really great show. I particularly liked the songs ‘Burn Down The Trailer Park’ and ‘Long Way From Tupelo’. I met Paul after the show, thanked him for allowing live recording, and told him that my friend Brad Foster, also from Tupelo MS, works in the same bank where Paul’s sister Deborah works.

Tapers: Please contact Billy before hand for recording permission. He was very friendly and helpful to me, and supplied me with a set list after the show which Paul signed for me. His email address is:
