*Mark's Master CD-Rs, on which tracks were not placed accurately
due to the limitations of the Standalone burner, so after extraction
they were pieced back into a single .wav and re-tracked using CD-WAV.

#Fades were added following each song (during crowd noise) because
the Master Cassette was stopped during the post-song crowd noise.
Rather than have abrupt level changes where the tape startsand stops
between songs, a 0.5s fade out was followed by a 0.5s fade in and a
track break was placed during the silence between the fades.

1Mark was only able to tape the first set, because during the
intermission his gear was confiscated. I believe that only the first
set of this show was ever recorded.
Trades Allowed Yes
