From Bruce:
I used the old SONY microphones I borrowed from Richie.  I used a Sony D5, which I gave to you a year or so ago.
Recorded at the old Starry Night club, first row of the balcony.....center.......directly above the soundboard.  I created and made all of the backstage passes because my friend, Forrest Faubion,  was the promoter.  I had wall power for the D5 and the DBX, which you also have.

I was the first person into the show and had my pick of recording locations.  Being right over the soundboard and in the balcony, there is far, far less crowd noise, because there was no one in front of me.  The mics were taped, but cushioned with sonex foam, to the balcony.

There is a chance I used  the Jaime modified NAK microphones......I'm not positive when he made them for me.

The best recording I ever made.  The backstage passes have my company name....Up All Night (Nite to save space) in very small font.

Is that enough information....Michael Hedges open, but was was very hard to record a solo guitar act so far away.  Too much noise to signal......too much echo.
Bruce
