Taper notes 6/1/09:
This show was THE ONE that hooked me way back when.  I had seen them twice before in '94 (once opening for The Dude Of Life w/Phish as his backing band at Wetlands and again opening for the post-Col. Bruce Hampton Aquarium Rescue Unit at Irving Plaza) and didn't think very much of them.  I felt like they were just a generic jamband with Zappa-ish leanings.  I was friendly with Brendan O'Neill who was moe's front-of-house sound mixer at the time and he had been bugging me for a while (since the "Timmy Rock Opera" show in February) to give them another chance.  And when he offered to guest list me and hook me up with gear to make a really superior SBD+Aud matrix at the show it was hard to pass up.  So I gave them another chance and they knocked my socks off.  Between the covers, all of the crazy teases, their really jammin' originals, the really really up-front bassist and the dreadlocked-drummer who was literally driving the band from the back seat, this show started it all for me nearly 150 shows ago!  I'm not sure why, but this show seems to have been missed by the moe.dank project, so I'm really happy to finally put it out here, 14+ years after the fact on archive.org for everyone to hear.....

Note the mix is extremely bass-heavy for the first 30 seconds of Rebubula or so.  This was a problem with the house mix that Brendan got corrected relatively quickly.

This is BARN3 -- my 3rd installment of the "Bernstein Archive Restoration" project of transferring my DATs to .wav files.
