Notes:

Levels are a bit nutty for the first minute or less of Africa, and my efforts
at equalizing the "Oh shit - look at those levels!" of the opening notes aren't
spectacular by any means.  But, if you were running a 13-year old DAT, FOB, in
a sand-floored cattle auction barn, under the influence of several powerful
substances, in the dark, crammed into the front row of 800 dancing FLOK, you'd
have level issues, too!  :^)

What a great little festival this is.  You should go next year!

This recording was made with the D3, external battery pack, and battery box
balanced on a 1" wide aluminum rail that capped the barrier between crowd and
stage.  I am still amazed that the gear remained there, completely unmolested,
for the whole set, although a flying beach ball knocked the whole rig onto the
sandy plywood front-of-house floor about three minutes before the band took the
stage.  Sigh.

SKB was rushed offstage after a shorter-than-planned set in order to get the
schedule back on track for that stage.  This is the fan's loss, as SKB was
certainly *on* this time.

Other bands at Smilefest 2002:
Keller Williams
Larry Keel Experience
Bela Fleck (with and without Flecktones)
Karl Denson's TU
Acoustic Syndicate
Sam Bush Band
Colonel Bruce Hampton (ret.) And The Code Talkers
Many others...

I took the liberty of making Rondey's drum "solo" into a separate track - if
you like it, just listen, and if not, just track up once to get to Thing Two.

I have a slight preference for this source than for the other source that circulates. This source has more presence and better headroom, IMHO.
