Currently it's unknown who taped this show, but it's accepted that this is from the master tapes. A pretty decent performance and it's the longest Terry And The Pirates show I have seen.
 
All cuts, dropouts, and the like between the tracks seem to come from the masters. It seems, to me, someone was trying to save tape and/or making sure the flips went well as no music appears to be missing. The fellow did quite all right job if you ask me.
  
If your burning program will allow you to do up to 79:56, then this show will barely fit on 2 Audio instead of 3. Just please remember that will be for your own version, and circulation of it that way is strongly discouraged.

Huge thanks goes to KevTobin who burned me the audio sometime in early 2003. Without his generosity, drive and spirit, this would have never happened. Hats off to him!!

We missed much of the first set because we were next door at the Stone 
Taping The
Jerry Garcia Band (see shnid 11131). Enjoy this awesome Hometown Nick 
and John show.

Barry "The Fish" Melton - guitar, vocals
John Cipollina - guitar
Doug Kilmer - bass
Spencer Dryden - drums
Peter Walsh - guitar, vocals on disc 2


Editing notes:
-I amplified the talk tracks and filtered out some of the hiss so it's easier to hear Barry chatting on those. All music tracks were left alone as far as amping and filtering.
-The Dance was split between both discs (faded out at the end of disc one, faded in at the beginning of disc 2). To join the two portions into one track as seamlessly as possible, I had to delete about 1.5 seconds of Spencer's solo, and presumably a second or two were lost in the initial split (maybe for a tape flip), but the final product sounds pretty durn good! The splice is at 8:28, see if you can find it.
