Dave had weather-related equipment issues, which resulted in low levels. and pops
in the right channel. 

He sent me the raw file. Using Audacity, I boosted the left channel 17.4db and used it for both
channels. I also boosted the 1st 58 minutes an additional 9db (he had raised the levels
after the band was back on the main stage). This version is being posted with his permisson.

It was a wet and stormy night, so it is kind of a miracle that any recording exists at all. Multiple 
tapers (including myself) left their equipment at their hotels. All credit goes to Dave.

Night 2 of Guster's "On the Ocean" festival. 
Rest Assured, Kishi Bashi and Secret Sisters opened.

Track 1 fades in and is courtesy of Brian Hracyk, who captured an mp3 while I was dealing with rain-induced equipment failure.

Tracks 12-14 were performed semi-acoustic at a small stage next to the soundboard. The band and crew carried Adam there on a paddleboard, while he pretended to paddle through the crowd.

This is far from a clean recording. The weather was threatening all day, and finally the heavens opened between Secret Sisters and Guster. Unfortunately, despite my best efforts, my V3 got some moisture inside it and it would not send out a signal that my deck could understand once the rain stopped. I finally decided to run it hot at 12V in hopes that it would cook off the moisture, and it ended up behaving with about 30 seconds left in the first song. Even so, the levels are extremely low, and there are occasional pops and dropouts in the left channel throughout. However, it's the only recording of the show that I'm aware of, so here it is.
