d1t01 can be removed to fit this onto 2 discs, this is just the way it came to me on CDR.

The second set stops abruptly due to a fire alarm going off. For about a minute, Medeski plays to the alarm but an official eventually comes out and evacuates the building. It turns out that some intelligent beings were having a wedding in the adjacent building and decided to set off firecrackers indoors. Fortunately, the show continued with a nice third set but the result is a very inconsistent, though well played, show.

Updated setlist with actual song titles.

"Dense" and the "Funky Improv" they used as an encore are the only tunes not found on Radiolarians II. Whether each are just improvs each time is unclear to me right now.

"Dense" seems to follow a pattern, which makes me wonder if we might find it on the upcoming box set release.

The "Funky" encores throughout the tour are almost all consistent in some regard as well, except a couple of times where it's clearly different (i.e. 7/18/2008)

Minor maintenance to setlist (updates, segues, typos, track times, etc.)

I've added the city name to each encore for this tour -- except for 7/17, which MMW named '10 Minutes of Our Lives' when they released it on the Explorarians disc in the Radiolarians box set.
