boombox's notes december 2011:

My first Zappa-related show and it won't be my last. Excellent musicianship all
round and FZ himself on this screen at times - what's not to like? Special mention
should be made of the percussionist, who is quite something!

Sound in the venue is always reverb-filled - Dweezil even asked us if it was too
boomy. This does come through in the recording, though quite close proxmity to the
speaker helps. If anyone can do a better job of remastering this, please let me know:
my original files are available. I had to do some pretty drastic hardlimiting to the
recording due to the very enthusiastic (and well-earned) applause all round me. I also
edited out about two minutes of the encore break, so Set 2 would fit onto 1 disc.

Apologies for pretty poor cover art photos - "audience safety" at the venue were
completely over the top, so I didn't want to risk any attention by using my camera
till the encore, by which time, even Dweezil was commenting on them.
