June 2015 Recollection:

It was a hot sunny weekend in Ventura, and the sea breeze was kicking up the sand in the rodeo arena.  We had to keep the tape decks covered with a towel to protect them from the dust, and for at least one of the shows (I think it was this show on the 14th that had the strong sea breeze) we put socks over the foam windscreens to try and minimize the wind noise on the mics.

The Saturday show started in the hot afternoon sun, and there were fires burning on the mountains east of the faigrounds, so it was fitting to open up the first show with One More Saturday Night and Fire On The Mountain.  It was also kind of cosmic when they sang "ashes ashes all fall down" during the end of Throwing Stones (on this show the 14th) as there were ashes falling down out of the sky all weekend from the fires.  As usual, Ventura delivered with some of the greatest camping scenes ever..Pacific Ocean Beachfront, bands playing, old school movies to watch on the "big screen", thriving hippy bazaar, and lots of food, drink, smoke, music and other goodies to share with everybody.

The recordings came out great, save for a bit of wind noise.  It was terribly good fun making these recordings, and I hope that you enjoy this show in 24/96 resolution.
