Location Notes:
This venue (there are some great ones in Louisville!) has regular seats with a central 
area that has several round tables up front.  We were in the Front Row table 'B'.  Initial 
hassles that shackaholic recieved with taping made me set up a small tripod on the table 
which was about 15 inches above stage level, 2 feet back from stage lip and 3 feet to the 
left of dead center. At set break I put the mics on my stand instead and put them 10 inches 
above stage level looking right over the stage lip Dead Fucking Center.  The band was set 
set up about 20 feet back from the stage lip.  Though MMW does not allow on stage mic'ing
anymore, this is about as close as you can get.  Listen for differences between set I and 
II, I bet few can hear the 3 foot slide to the right.  I would put this in the top 10 
recordings I have ever pulled, sound quality wise.  The band was dialed in perfectly and
played great!

Reported setlist:
I do not know if these tracks match up correctly or not, as this was all new music.  Thanks
to shackaholic for the setlist info...I have only cut 6 tracks in I and 10 in II since the 
track breaks are a bit hard to find.  Thanks to Rex T for the kind seats!
