Props to David Hughes for giving me the patch and to Dan for letting me do it.  

Mastering Notes:
I didn't have  patch for Garrin Bednfield's guitar.  All of these tracks were properly synched.  The only EQ was on the mike track, which was a high and low cut to kill rumble and hiss.  Vocals panned a little to the left, guitar a little right.  Compression on all tracks was mild.  I mixed as much mike track in as I could without getting the mix (especially Dan's voice) muddy, erring on the side of a dry mix.
