Random sounds emanating from synthesizers, keyboards and/or
other simultaneous concerts at the venue can also be heard.
Plus, a lot of space echo, putting the psych in the psych-folk.

Also, the opening line of "Rocket Man" was missing, so I fabricated one from materials
found later in the song. Sticklers for authenticity can slice off the first 20 seconds.
The other tracks were separated by fades, but in some cases there was overlap, so a clean
re-join was possible. I split the talk before "These Things Too" into its own track, and
split the final medley into two tracks because there is such a clean pause between them.
Not a bad sounding audience tape, made with unknown recording equipment - I would
venture to guess a cassette recorder, possibly with built-in stereo microphones.
The PA seems a little distant and muddy sounding, and one could hope for more presence
in Tom's guitar and voice, but the audience is respectful and generally not distracting.
Much gratitude is due the unknown taper for capturing and sharing this show on the web.
The musician list is based on stage announcements, web research, and best guesses.
