Notes:
(SK):
Beginning of second set was a Subway Tour through the various stops on the A 
Train as follows:  Sweet Georgia Brown (Harlem - 125th St.), Instant Karma 
(The Dakota - 72nd St.), New York New York (42nd St.), So What (Greenwich 
Village - 4th St.), No Sleep 'Til Brooklyn (Canal St.) with subway sounds 
and narration by John Barlow portraying Walt Whitman.

(DH):
It was a *major* hassle getting into the venue this night.  They made tapers 
take everything out of our normal gear bags and put our stuff in white 
plastic kitchen garbage bags, and then told us to check our regular bags for 
retrieval after the show.  We were all pissed off at this, and many tapers 
just decided to blow it off completely, just patch, or they brought in the 
minimal amount of stuff.  I brought in the most stuff, and from the looks of 
the rigs in the tapers section, nobody brought in a V2, an AD2K+, and 
definitely not a laptop (typical).  There were only nine mic stands, not 
counting the 1 FOB mic stand.  To further amazement, only 2 mic stands were 
actually DFC, the rest being 5 or more feet off of DFC.  One set of mics 
were erroneously pointed at the floor, ceiling, and sides as the guy's 
mounts were loose.  On the stand that I was on, there was a pair of MBHO 
603's, run ORTF with active cables into an MP2 and an M1, and then there was 
my rig.  The FOB taper was quite a bit inside the equilateral triangle, so 
who knows what happened on his tape.  There wasn't a soul patched out of me 
that night, so this may very well be the best recording in the house that 
night.  Enjoy.  Hope the listener feels it was worth the extreme effort...
