NOTES:
----------
* = Tim Solo
^ = Lyle Lovett Cover


This is a decent recording without too much overpowering crowd noise. The levels are a little bit low however.

There is a spot of static in the begining of Warehouse and another spot where it sounds like somethings hits the mic.

There are some cuts in the crowd noise between songs that are about 0.2 seconds. These could not cleanly be removed, so they stayed.

There is also spots of static in the intro part to DDTW and also To Touch Yearning.

This is the first time Dave & Tim played Crush, and If I Had A Boat (first time period for that one).

It is also only the second of three performances by D&T of Rapunzel (to date).

These rare older shows have been collected and converted through a collaborative effort to get them into circulation. Sometimes these shows do not have the best sound quality (and maybe that's why they aren't circulated much to begin with), but people should have access to them.

Thanks to Dan Pyrik for the CD source used for the conversion.

UPDATE:  Reviewed the wav files I received from Adam.  Using Soundforge 8.0, I normalized all tracks due to the low levels and applied a fade in to the intro track. Using the Soundforge pencil tool, removed the static spots in Warehouse and applied a crossfade to the 0.2 second cut at the end but was unable to fix the bumps to the mic stand. Applied crossfade to the 0.2 second cut at the end of #41. Removed static spots on DDTW and at the 00:26 second mark of Two Step repaired several pops however there is a slight skip there that could not be fixed. Applied a fade in to intro track of disc 2, removed a dozen static spots on To Touch Yearning as well as crossfade the 0.2 second cut at the end of the song, repaired several pops in Typical and crossfaded the cut at the end as well, static spots repaired on LIOG, Say Goodbye,and Hopeful Heresy.  Applied fade in to Jimi Thing at the start of disc 3, applied crossfade to PFWYG however it could not be accomplished seamlessly since the cut was so abrupt and the crowd comes back in at a much lower level, applied crossfade to the end of Billies seamlessly. Applied fade out at the end of Nancies.  The tape sounds great overall except for the occasional sharp clapping heard near the mics. New set of flac files and fingerprints created.
