NOTES:

- The Acoustic Planet Tour. You can download the whole show at https://archive.org/details/acousticplanet2004-08-12.nak.flac16.

- Playing order was Yonder Mountain String Band, Keller Williams, and finally Bela Fleck and the Flecktones.  All musicians took part in the Encores, which I have included with the Flecktones' set.

- The transition from band to band was seamless, leading to some challenging tape changes.

- Tape change splice between Encores.

- The artists left the stage between the First and Second Encores.

'Lordy, I hope there are tapes.'
