String Cheese Incident   04/28/2000

Merlefest, Wilkesboro, NC
Source dsbd
Media CD-R   1 disc
Notes DSBD & AUD
Tech Notes the AUD is A- in sound quality, no other source info. here's the story of the SBD patch.
This set was the second of three that SCI played at their first
(and only to date) Merlefest. It was played at about 1PM during
a pouring rainstorm. It didn't seem to stop the action and to this
date remains probably the single best set of SCI I've had the honor
to witness. This DSBD surfaced a little while back. Merlefest is a
notoriously non-taping festival, to the extent that when JonO extended
a patch at the Main Stage on 4/27, festival authorities made him pull it
back. It is essentially flawless, aside from a few spots of static here
and there which are minor, but should be noted. I would assume they are
related to the miserable weather that was happening. For the transfer, I
ran the Clipped Peak Restoration tool in Soundforge to remove some of
areas where my tape was overblown. In addition, the first two minutes of
the show were balanced from a level standpoint with how the rest of the
show sounds. I hope you enjoy
the results of the work and hope this set
brings you as much enjoyment as it has brought me. Jimbo
