Show/Recording Notes:

- Midway through the set there was some rearrangement on stage and I'm guessing a mic was moved closer to the bass conga. Tracks 4 and 5 in particular have a huge sub-bass punch from this drum. 

- Strong performance and decent sound overall.

- Opened for The Pimps of Joytime.
