--Rascal's description on the BT item--
I feel I should warn you that this is a "bootleg" recording. If your expecting a studio recording then buy their official releases. This was recorded in a crowded bar with lots of noisy people enjoying themselves. The recording is very good for an audience recording and for the realists out there it will be an enjoyable show. Those of you who find it necessary to point out that a bootleg has some hiss or crowd noise or some other typical bootleg baggage, please don't bother to download this show because I find your anal comments boring...

--Updated Info from taper Skip Shipley--

"Of the 10 or so MOAM shows that I attended, I taped six and I think that all of them circulate:

Exit/In - Nashville Dec. 1, 1996
Toy Tiger - Louisville, KY Dec. 4, 1996
Exit/ In - Nashville - June 7, 1997
Exit/ In - Nashville - Nov. 13, 1999
The End - Nashville - Sept. 26, 1998
The End - Nashville - March 8, 2001
 
All six were recorded with the same equipment:
 
Sony ECM-737 (microphone in my shirt pocket) -> Sony D7 (DAT @48khz) -> Cool Edit Pro (via SPDIF input) -> CDR/or DAT/or Cassette
 
I have traded them on DAT, CDR and cassette..."

--Additional Notes on lineage and minor fixes--

Rascal obtained several Tennessee shows from the original Audience taper Skip who provided a CDR in each case, and this is one of them. The original fileset was seeded by Rascal on March 30, 2005 through the easytree BitTorrent tracker as Skip's CDR> WAV> FLAC.

After download, I fixed the sector boundaries on every track as a group in Trader's Little Helper ver 0.9.3.56 with backward shift, and zero-padding on the end track, with automatic reencoding to FLAC level 8. I renamed the files to etree.org standards.

The full lineage on this copy is therefore: Sony ECM-737 (microphone in shirt pocket)> Sony D7 (DAT @48khz)> Cool Edit Pro (via SPDIF input)> CDR by taper Skip Shipley; DAE> WAV> FLAC> EZT seeding by Rascal; SBE fix> FLAC by Diana Hamilton

Thanks to the Skip, to Rascal, and of course to the band for the taping, trading and archiving of this noncommercial recording!
