I used a ZOOM H2 to record the show at 24bit/48kHz using the internal stereo mics on the machine (the 2 mic set-up, not the 4 mic set-up). 
Transferred the show from SDHC card to a cd format using Cool Edit Pro 2.0



*Loni Anderson got up from her table (where she was sitting with Tim Reid) and introduced herself to the band b/t songs 15 & 16. 

got to this ranch at 3p for a 9:45p show. lots of hanging out, throwing the football around, etc...a hackeysack game even broke out. unofficial opening act was jimmy strumming his guitar outside for a couple of hours while the guys played cards. he burned through about 6 tom petty songs at one point just before they had to take the stage (even the losers, I need to know, here comes my girl, american girl, etc). show itself was interesting. people were there to support a charity (i.e., NOT to see the gourds), but the guys put on a good one anyway. song of the night was steeple. moment of the night was loni anderson walking up to the stage to shake hands with kev and jimmy. she left about a song later. I thought that was nice of her. venus flytrap was there, too. it was just that kind of night.
