Retracking notes:

Removed approximately 2 minutes of intro material which suffered 
badly from PA problems.  Moved track start points for Whiskey
Before Breakfast and San Jose.  Moved spoken intro of Got What He 
Wanted from the end of d1 to the beginning of d2.  Eliminated
Jam track on d2 and added it to the beginning of Texas.

   Review:
     Disc 1:
Track 1:  Has lots of SBD static problems. (Not Fixable)
Track 6:  Has about 2:20 of little Hands Jam before Whiskey starts.
Track 8:  Has about :58 of Bigger Isnt Better before San Jose starts.

Disc 2:
Track 4:  Really dont think this needs to be a seperate track.  But its cool to
hear Billy's Public Service Announcement about "Hemp":)

This hole show seems to have low levels of bass and drums.  It really doesnt
have the feel of a SBD to me.  I didnt hear the static that Rich found in his
review in Track 6&7. I'm going to give it a Further Review, due to tracking.
     
   Jeff Pote's vote: Further Review.

   Review:
     Disc 1: 
Track 1; Buzz from :59 to 1:13, Static from 1:19 to 2:07 ending with a Pop, Pop
at 2:15, Static at 2:53. 
Track 9; Tick at 6:47, Bass is Buzzing from 7:02 to 7:04, Buzz from 8:40 to
8:45. 
I did not detect the problems Rich found on track 6 and 7. After reading Rich's
review I did notice what he was talking about on track 6, but I had to review it
several times before I heard it. 
Disc 2: 
Track 1; Tick at 3:36.

My real problems with this show have more to do with tracking. Jeff mentioned
the track mark for Track 6 and Track 8. I could argue that San Jose (Track 8) is
being teased 57 seconds before they break it out. I would have a harder time
with the segue between Little Hands and Whiskey Before Breakfast (Track 6). 
My first complaint is that the intro to Got What He Wanted ends Disc 1 and the
song begins Disc 2. At 8:49 on Disc 1 Track 9 it goes from Kang saying "Thank
you, folks" to Travis saying "Alright, Kyle our keyboard player...". I think
8:49 to 9:21 of Disc 1 Track 9 should be part of Disc 2 Track 1. 
Next is Track 4. It is called Jam. As we all know Jams are not supposed to have
their own tracks. If it was called Intro would that make it more allowable? I
contend that at 0:40 when Billy says "I'll tell you a little campfire story
about a close brush with the law" it becomes an intro to Texas. 

The show is a good one. That's for sure.

   Review:
     All of the PA crap happens before the start of the music.  So that stuff is
exusable in my opinion.  It's ugly, but
it really doesn't need to be on the discs anyway.

My only complaint about this show is tracking.  

d1t5 spoken song introduction appears at the end of previous track

d1t6 jam between songs is where this track starts.  I'd start it about 2:20
later

d1t9  this track includes the spoken intro to Got What He Wanted.  That portion
should be the beginning of the next
track, which happens to be the start of the next disc.

d2t4 What is this song Jam?  It's very short anyways and
would be better at the end of track 3 or beginning of 
track 5.

I would vote thumbs up for a retracked version.  As it is,
I say thumbs down.
     
   Shaun Funk's vote: Thumbs Down.
