We recorded this with Stan Smiths monster matrix rig. We got in and set up early as always with a truck load of gear. We measured distance for the aud pair and set them up at the board, dialing in the delay accordingly. 
There were a slew of decks patched out of Stan's rig. Some were of  his straight board feed, and some out of the matrix. My Master DAT is cut near the end of Asheville Junction. I have no idea if this was the case with the entire matrix chain or not. I'm sure Stan has all of it, but it will be a while before he will be able to dig it out.
A friend urged me to seed this regardless of the missing last tune. I am hesitant to seed something incomplete, but I see JH is fairly well liked at db.etree, so I figured I'd go ahead and seed it. 

This was a VERY special show to attend. The stage had chairs from the left all the way to the right with players from the weekend's events sitting in them. John was ceremoniously given a banjo which he would pluck here and there. John's wit and humor were hilarious throughout the night, and you could tell he was having a great time.
