Notes: The first half of this broadcast was marred by a significant number of dropouts, most lasting 3/100th of a second or less. I closed up the dropouts, but there are places where the band (e.g., Zig) seems to speed up the beat as a result of my edits. In few places, the number of dropouts was so high (or the resulting edit was deemed too egregious) that I spliced in sections from the mp3 live stream, including:
* 3.6-second splice at 2:43 into Fire on the Bayou;
* 1.6 seconds at 4:36 into the same song;
* 35.7 seconds at about 3:10 into Track 4 (instrumental);
* 1.9 seconds at 1:16 into Hey Pocky Way;
* 7.3 seconds at 1:41 into the same song;
* 3 seconds at 1:54, also in Hey Pocky Way

There were virtually no dropouts after Hey Pocky Way.

One relatively long DJ interruption was removed, about 15.6 seconds 4:12 into Track 4.

There was some fairly substantial feedback during People Say. I used a -24db notch filter at 1800 Hz and 3600 Hz to reduce the noise (beginning about 6:18 into the song).

At the beginning of this recording, the DJs came on (in Track 00, in the "extra" directory) to say the broadcast would start in a few minutes. But rather than immediately going back to the station, the live signal from the stage was broadcast, where Cissy Strut (Track 1) was in progress. After about 20 seconds, the signal reverted abruptly to the station for about 5-1/2 minutes (Tracks 1b and 1c, in the extra directory) before the live broadcast officially began (Track 2).
