notes:

* drop out on master - as I remember this was due to the two alligator clips on
  the ends of my patch cord making contact each other. Electrical tape was
  administered and the tape rolled on. Very little missing.

+ abrupt level adjustment at start

^ harsh cut towards the end - although I knew I needed to flip the tape I had to
  chat with a security person. He found it interesting that I was spending the
  entire evening in the downstairs lobby sitting on the floor by the ladies room.
  I told him I loved the way it sounded by the set of speakers set up down there.
  Satisfied, he turned and I flipped the tape. A couple of minutes are missing.



more story:
   After making hideous auds of the first two nights I came up with the idea
   of somehow splicing into the speakers set up in the downstairs lobby/rest room
   area of the theater. It was essential that the speaker still get a signal or
   it would draw attention that it'd been messed with. I made up a set of patch
   cords with alligator clips soldered on the ends and sneeked in the trusty D5 and
   a pair of sewing scissors. After cutting into the speaker wire I clamped
   on the alligator clips and away we went. The speaker played fine and the deck was
   getting a perfect signal.
   After 10/17 I tried again at the 10/21 evening show. Another taper patched
   out of me with a D6 at this one. This taper had gotten away with a "stealth board"
   that afternoon at the matinee and he hooked me up with a cm>c 1st gen. I remember
   we had to bail that night towards the end of the acoustic set, but I think I have
   40 min's or so on dat somewhere.
   Although this method of taping produced a few gems, I must add the disclaimer that
   I would not recomend messing with any band's equipment. Ever. Anywhere. That
   having been said I hope you enjoy the tape. Rob
