There were sonic glitches (probably caused by weather conditions) that got some corrective action, but unfortunately they can still be heard. They are as follows:

* Edit at 2:37 in jam removing about 4 seconds
** sonic glitch at 5:49
*** Edit at 3:22 in guitar solo removing about 15 seconds, plus sonic glitch at 3:34
**** sonic glitches at 0:52 and 1:03
***** sonic glitch at 3:12
****** edit at 2:11 removing about 3 seconds (one sung line), sonic glitch at 2:12

These problems had their gains and EQ highs lowered.

Except for the first couple minutes of the first song and the minor edits detailed above, this is a complete show.
