NOTES:
I don't believe I have ever traded or torrented this one before now. I had the chance and took it to get right up in the front on the side....not the best to record but it ended up with a pretty direct PA recording even though there is some crowd in the mix. Recorded from row 2, right side. I used a buddy's mics and had some issues with the one of the mic channels partially unplugged from the battery box on a few spots, creating some pops and issues. I have digitally removed most of these that I could find. After normalization to even out the channels from the recording position, no other post-processing was done on this recording.

This was about a 2 hour drive from my house up to the resort town of Sun Valley, ID. When we got there we couldn't find a hotel as everything was booked since the Dalai Lama was speaking in town the next day. We ended up spending a cold night in the truck up on a dirt side road in the mountains outside of town. I had always wanted to see Willie Nelson though so it was a great trip up there to get this fine capture of the show.

Recorded by JLW. Transferred from DAT in 2007. Seeded on DIME 12/09.
