[Occasional, sudden mix fluctuations throughout the show, such as Jerry switching between channels, accompanied sometimes by a very faint click sound. One wonders if this same issue is present in the master reels.]

Note from the AUD text file, by Matt Vernon
-------------------------------------------
Here's verbatim an answer I received from Jerry Moore concerning details of his recordings for this date, which I have included unedited
with the permission of the author:
Hi Matt --
Hhmmmmmm......
I can never remember ANYTHING.
Ask Noah - no doubt he'll vouch for me on this one.
Maybe I can remember something, if I rack my brain. Nothing. Zip. Well,
maybe something. I was sitting in the first row loge one night, with the
mikes on the ledge. I think I spread them pretty well, too, even though the
Music Hall wasn't a venue I was terribly familiar with. Point of fact, I've
always been cautious about risky matters, but a tape recording? Hardly ever.
Come to think of it, I remember was more about making the tape in the loge
than I should. It comes back.... I believe I was actually sitting two or
three rows back, and fairly well centered. Jesus, this is a sorta
ridiculous sequence, unless I've got it mixed up with a totally different
show. I wouln't bet the farm on my being confused though, since some
incidentals are coming back as well.
I came prepared to compensate for the less than perfect seats. Each of my
mike cables was about fifteen feet long, and I had two twenty foot long
extensions. Add the whole string up, that's a run of about seventy feet of
cable, roughly the height of a seven story building. Never really thought
about that before. I ran the cables down the aisle, and split them along
the ledge, duct taping as necessary, and padded the mikes somewhat from
vibration with a couple of pieces of foam and wrapped them in towels as
well, leaving just the heads sticking out.
The place was already pretty full when I set up, and while most everybody
in the first row was pretty patient with me, there were a couple of
lunkheads, and to get around them I went scrambling out on the ledge
clinging to the rail, pretty much like any other monkey.
I was kind of paranoid about the mikes being that far out of sight and
reach, but I had asked some friendly looking types near the actual
positions to keep an eye on them, and ultimately everything went off
without a hitch.
The other night I was sitting on the floor, and all that comes back about
that is that I was quite close, and hand holding the mikes.
I was going to say that I don't remember where I sat on which night, and
that you'd have to listen to both tapes and try to guess from the results,
but I think I can place them exactly.
I have a very clear memory of pretty literally levitating out of my seat
howling at the first hint of Saint Stephen (pretty sure I was the first one
to react too, as I remember getting some strange looks behind it) and
damned surely wouldn't have been able to do that holding a microphone or
anywhere near one.
QED, whichever night they played Stephen, I was sitting upstairs.
Only other thing that comes to mind was that a union lighting guy saw me
doing my fairly blatant setup, and we had a rather surreal dialogue. He
told me something like "You can't do that, I get five hundred bucks if it's
a recording session," and went running to tell his boss or somebody.
Contractual obligations or not, the union rep must've had a functional
brain, because the guy came back bitching, having apparently been told to
go back to work and leave it alone.
Anyway, like I said, can't remember a damned thing.
Best, Jerry
