| Note | Those of you who were THERE, already know that the main power failed several times during the show.
The first of these ocurred during the end of the first set, on the final notes of "Shine". During the second set, power failures during Galactic, Texas Town, and Joyful Sound caused the band to ultimately play an unplugged acoustic set at the lip of the stage. We normally record each "On The Road' with four different pieces of equipment, a DVD recorder, DA78 multi-track tape, DAT tape for Soundboard, and DAT tape for Audience Mics. The power failures prevented us from getting complete recordings of the second set. We want to thank our friend Sandy Alexander for supplying the "missing pieces" from the show. Sandy's tapes were used for the second half of Galactic (d2,t3) through Dark Hollow (d2,t8). To show you how strange an evening this really was, Sandy ALSO had power problems with his equipment, and the tapes we obtained from him, which we understand to be the only avaialable tapes of the unplugged acoustic portion of the show, had some unusual pitch variations which had to be corrected by the folks at Airshow Mastering. We were unable to make the recordings PERFECT, but we spent a great deal of time trying to make this show 'releaseable'. In the end, we just felt uncomfortable with selling this recording, as it is far below the quality standards for OTR. Despite the many issues on this show, we know there are people out there who would want to hear this recording, and everyone here agreed that the best thing to do was to let our fans have it and pass it around like they do with the tapes recorded by our vibrant taping community. So please help pass this recording around by offering up B&P (blank & postage) offers, or by sharing this show by digital downloads. Obviously, the second disc has portions that are not the greatest sounding, but we felt that we'd present the show in as complete and good sounding version as we could provide. Enjoy!!

Power was lost during Shine, Galactic, Texas Town, and Joyful Sound. After power goes out in Joyful Sound, Nershi leaves the stage and the song is played only with Kyle on accordion, Kang on fiddle, Keith on vocals (no bass), and Travis on claps. Power restored after Dark Hollow, but fails during On the Road, at which time Keith leaves the stage and Kyle plays bass lines on keyboards. Setlist courtesy of Friends of Cheese. |
