Thanks to all the hard work from the folks mentioned above with
their loving care getting these sources out.  Also a thanks for 
some of the images used in creation of the artwork.  I found them 
years ago on the net and do not have any way to properly credit.

Notes on the Source Material

SBD (ShnID = 3908)
Perfectly balanced and flawless DSBD recording and perfect transfer 
by David Gans.  

AUD (ShnID = 82801)
Great sounding above average AUD.  Nice balanced sound and a clean 
transfer.  Approx 30 seconds missing in Sugaree, Let Mikey Sing and
approx 15 seconds of Drums. 

Patch (ShnID = 3325) 
Nice sounding FOB that has a few spots that are overloaded.  In the
end I found that using the other AUD source alone in the mix resulted
in a better outcome.  Fortunately this source was able to patch the
cuts found in the primery AUD recording.  Patch was used for the above 
AUD source in Sugaree, Let Mikcey Sing and Drums.

Tech Notes

FLAC/SHNs were decoded to wave. Wavemerge was used to reassemble the 
entire show back to 1 long wave.  CEP2.0 was used to align & synch 
all of the sources.  CEP2.0 was used for the multitrack mixdown.  
This is a 60%-SBD, 40%-AUD1 mix.     
- Mixed by dan@am-dig.com
- FLAC conversion done 24-MAY-2008   
- Artwork at 300dpi by dan@am-dig.com 
- For best results print at the highest resolution onto glossy 
photo paper.  Design for use in a 6CD multi case for both the July
2 and 3 shows.  Also included is artwork for a clear double jewel 
case to hold each show individually.

Notes

The entire show is seamless and can be burned to CD with any splits
desired.  Because there is a several second break after "I Will Take 
You Home" and before "Drums" I found that to be the best spot as not 
to cut any transisitions (like the usual drums > space).  Plus this
leaves us with 3 somewhat equal length CDs.

Most between song tuning/crowd cheer was missing on the SBD source 
as well as a few spots on the AUD sources.  As usual, a trememdous 
effort was made to have the between song flow sound as smooth and
natural as possible.  Several techniques were used to do this
including volume adjustments, crossfades and borrowing crowd cheers
from other portions of the recording.
