Tapers Notes:
There is some break up in the audio roughly 30 seconds into the 1st song. This exists on the master DAT tape and is most likely a problem with Marc's guitar cable.

Also, note that Chris' vocals were extremely loud at the show, +10dB in relationship to all the other musicians. So...I did my best to contain his vocals without destroying them by using the Manley ELOP. But I'm right on the edge and didn't want to push it any further. You'll also notice that the overall mix sounds better for some songs versus others. That's the nature of the beast. I'm not mixing this show live or in post, so I try to pick the best overall settings that simply average out across all songs. I certainly have my favorite songs that I think sound pretty good, but there are others that still bug the hell out of me.

Last, Chris' vocals do break up ever-so-slightly on the peaks. This exists on the master DAT tape, and I think it was caused by a slight clipping of his preamp or perhaps the compressor that FOH was using. However, to get the best sound out of the mix, my EQ settings do tend to accentuate it at times.
