recorded by Mike Martin
source: 2 Sennheiser e-614 microphones (on stage) > Tascam HD-P2 @ 24-48
transfer: iZotope RX6 advanced (preparation included reducing a loud buzzing sound & conversion to 16-44) > TLH (flac16)

Another fun show at Moe's Alley.
So good to get the chance to see our merfamily again.
Although I had a large external battery supply I messed up and was using the internal batteries until the deck shut off in the second set.
I saw the lights blink off and didn't take long to discover my mistake.
Restarted the recorder with the external supply connected correctly and not too much is missing from track 4 of disc 2
Live recordings.....If it isn't one thing, it's another.
