16/44.1 conversion by Bob Loy - notes: the only changes I made b4 converting were to apply a new crossfade 
@ the open of set one to remove a rather nasty (mic stand bump - balloon pop?) and a new crossfade at the 
close of set two to replace a rather abrupt fade that was there. I also patched 22 seconds of crowd during 
nfa chant from shnid 8961 @ 9:55 - 10:17 w/ crossfades and adjusted volume to match . absolutely no eq,nr.
Thanks to SirMick for some tips to get this converted correctly.

and still... the music never stops! Completed August 1st 2006, Happy Birthday Jerry!
