--Show Notes--
- Overall, a decent performance in front of a rather unsuspecting yet
  very receptive Soulive crowd. Lots of 1st-time listeners really
  enjoying the Montbleau Band sound.
- 'Pimpers Paradise' is easily the gem of this set.  The band nailed it
  down tight with Jay blazing the path on keys, and the tune really
  encapsulated the spirit of the evening. ;)


--Tech Notes--
- Thanks to Jack Trifiro for making the band sound so great and hooking
  up the SBD feed. For those who don't know... Jack's da man!
- As noted above where it reads "Official Bleauleg (1)", the '1' simply
  indicates that the finishing (ie: mixing & mastering) that went into
  making this Bleauleg is of a "1st draft" type quality.  Due to the
  sheer # of recordings we've done and the demands of the trading world
  to get these out there, we simply can't spend an exorbitant amount of
  time on each show.  Should there be a voiced demand for improvements,
  we may opt to release a 2nd revision (and so on) somewhere down the
  road.  Our Mantra: Nothing is ever final.
- Comments, complaints, suggestions and/or special requests can be sent
  directly to "Trader Dan" <bleaulegs@ryanmontbleau.com>.
