* with Roger Fox on flute
# with Chris Theberge on percussion
$ with The Hour

Notes:
- Dropouts in Johnny B. Goode from 3:33 to 3:40 and again from
  3:50-3:54.
- Blues Traveler opened for The Hour and played the first six tracks.
  The Hour played a set, Blues Traveler came back on and played at least
  the last five tunes. It is likely they played more; Trust In Trust
  fades in and a three-song set/encore is fairly unlikely. Unfortunately, 
  that's all that was recorded.

Notes from Michael:
- Nak 300's>D6C or Marantz PMD 430 (probably the latter), Master
  (XLII-S), no NR
  In late 1988 I was gearing up for my first trip to see the Dead in CA
  for the New Year's run.  I'm liking this whole go to a show, tape it
  and listen to it back home thing.  What to do, what to do...got it,
  I'll buy a new deck so I can make even better tapes of the dead in
  Oakland!  I'm already spending so much on the trip, it only makes
  sense. So I upgrade my deck to a Marantz PMD 430.  I'm pretty sure
  12/15 was the first time I used it.

  I got there early.  Was all set up and ready to go so I just hung out
  at the bar with Chan and Matt Turk (the lead guitarist & vocalist for
  The Hour).  I recall they were both rather proud to be drinking beer
  at the bar which was quite an accomplishment what with being underage
  and all - oh, the naughty thrills we had back in the day.  I was
  somewhat surprised to learn that Chan was younger than me.  I thought
  he was a little older.  It was either at this show or the next that I
  gave John copies of some of the tapes I had made over the last couple
  months.  It was probably only one or two.  He gave me the Let's Travel
  audio cassette in trade.
