A Personal Note: This was the first SCI show that I personally have taped since the recent course of events have evolved where as Jon-O is no longer mixing the Front of House for the band. Although many stories are going around as to how and why this happened I for one am really bummed. Jon-O (John O'Leary) was a BIG reason that we have had so many FANTASTIC Audience tapes to listen to over the years. Although this recording is 'OK' I do not think that it compares to what we get when Jon-O ran the boards. If you feel the same as I do please let the band and management know what you you think. Jon-O (and Pete) were always wonderful to the tapers and even bent over backwards to accomodate us and this treatment was always GREATLY appreciated by all of us. I hope that by-gones can be by-gones and and that the problems will be worked out so that Jon-O will return.
