Notes:

Jerry's guitar is lower in the mix for the first six minutes of Half-Step.

Click removed in Cassidy.

Sets EQ'd slightly differently because of sonic changes.

A few audience cheers happen in response to synchronistic lightning during Looks Like Rain. Lightning also flashes during the first chorus of Fire On The Mountain, eliciting more cheers.

Get Up, Stand Up lyrics from Bobby during Estimated Prophet.

4:20 still missing from the AUD track during Drums/Space, mostly for Drums.
