Notes The initial crowd reaction to Seek Up is loud in mics as the taper raises their stand immediately following.

Levels are high on the whole recording which can cause some light brickwalling.

There is also some light digital artifacting during the intro track and Seek Up which isn't too distracting and mostly clears up by the end of Rapunzel.

There's clearly a limiting job on the recording before we received it.

Despite these issues, the tape generally sounds pretty good and the music is forward in the mix.

Fades applied to the beginning and end of the show (outro house music is "If I Had a Boat")

==========

This is a new source to circulation as of fall 2022. It is part of a collection of tapes that Bill Lakenan provided and allowed us to review for sources that didn't make it into the digital age. Huge thanks to Bill for trusting us with his personal DAT tapes to help us provide as many listening opportunity for fans as possible.

If you have any sources that we can help review whether it matches extant sources or want help converting and spreading, please reach out to us at dmbalmanac@gmail.com. We are willing to take on as much of the work as we can to share this music that maybe you might be the only one in possession.
