This recording was sort of a throw-together mission.  I was working at this show & didn't have my recorder, but did have mics.  My co-worker Adam had the USBPre & the laptop, so he downloaded Audacity from Blues Traveler's bus' wireless network, & we went for it.  There are some glitches, bitches (sorry, couldn't resist), but they are tiny.  Most are like really small skips, like the computer dropped a sample (or some samples).  They're not too distracting, & some are barely noticeable.  I have attempted to notate all of these, but it's certainly possible that I missed one here or there.  A few really small digi pops exist also.  I decided to post it anyway because it sounds real good, there are some new tunes, & I didn't see any other tapers other than the band's sound engineer.

Thanks to Adam for making this recording & thanks to Blues Traveler for allowing taping & being a cool band!  Enjoy!!
