Notes:
----------
* The DMB Tour Almanac lists Proudest Monkey as the first song and Nancies, DIDO as the encore, but they are not on this DAT.
* The taper can be heard adjusting his mics during the intro track and Satellite and then changing levels during Satellite.
* The first bass hits of Satellite totally overload the taper's signal chain and he cuts back the levels.  There is distortion  before the 1 min. mark and on vocals primarily after that.

UPDATE: Received the wav files direct from the DAT from Louie on dvd. There were many clicks present on the DAT and that's an understatement. Using Soundforge 8.0, applied the pencil tool to remove all clicks/static and or diginoise where it was possible to fix as listed below. The repair process for this source took a very long time and was frustrating at times due to the mere volume of errors per second.  It was also a listening and learning process but in the end well worth the result. This source sounds unreal in my honest opinion for a 1995 tape. It's very crisp sounding and the only drawback is the distortion on some tracks and the crowd clapping close to the mics. It's also too bad the encore is missing. Many many thanks to Louie for the advice and On the Job Training to fix this one up.
