CD Wave @ 44.1 kHz -> .wav
FLAC -> .flac

No EQ, volume fade-in and fade-out at beginning and end of show using Nero Wave Editor.  Track splits done with CD Wave.

This is the only recording of this show I'm aware of.  I had the band's permission to tape but no good place to mount the mikes, and therefore had to clip them to the sides of my glasses standing at the front of a platform about 20 feet back from the stage at center.  Consequently, there's quite a bit of audience noise from the boisterous hometown crowd, and my own breathing is occasionally picked up during the quieter songs.  Otherwise the recording sounds very good for an analog transfer, and better than most HEM shows in circulation.
