Taper's Notes: The show was in a tent, which was surrounded by a food court (the back and about halfway on the sides).  As this was one of the first sets on Friday evening, many people came straight from work and made the food court their first stop.  A lot of people coming and going as well.  In other words, there is some crowd noise...


=============================================================
Traders Little Helper used for creating checksums:
- FLAC ST5 & MD5 generated for ID3 tagged files

MP3Tag (current version) used for all ID3 tagging:
- The metadata ID3 tags can be read by any player that plays FLAC files.
- ID3 tags will be stripped if converted to WAV, however audio data will be unaffected

Use FLAC ST5 to validate audio integrity.
(Alternatively, the FLAC FFP contains the same checksum values.)
FLAC MD5 values will change if ID3 tags are altered.
T-FLAC16TAG.HTML uses FOLDER.JPG to display album art
T-FLAC16TAG.TXT provides a track-by-track breakdown of the fileset's ID3 tags
