Comments:

We were in a sea of balloons during Midnight Hour (d2t02) There is a massive amount of balloon 
popping going on from about 0:50 - 4:15 seconds on this track. The pops are not at a level that 
should cause problems for speakers. I left it in as is, because it really gives the flavor of the 
ambiance of the room and NYE blast we were all having.  There are a couple of other spots with 
intermittent balloon popping.

The first second or so of Brokedown d3t09 is missing, as is on the other aud sources.

A huge thanks goes out to my good friends from Memphis, Cindy Braden and Misty and the two guys
they were with for creating a blocking wall during the time the birthday cake went from the back
of the floor to the front.  There was a huge displacement of people and it was a formidable task
for us all not to get trampled.
