NOTES

[1] with Shara Warden on vocals

To seamlessly join the two discs, simply remove D1T12 and D2T01.

Much better recording than the night before - sound engineer had the room dialed in much more effectively than the night before. This recording is dedicated to the meathead and bimbo crew who planted themselves right in front of me and then proceeded to <1> blather obnoxiously through half of the performance (especially during quiet songs) despite multiple audience members' polite reqests to pipe down or at least move to the back / sides of the venue, and <2> throw nearly - but not quite - empty beer cups at each other, splashing those around them with backwash and beer. Classy act, indeed. High five, high five!! But I won't let a handful of meatheads and bimbos ruin it for everyone by hoarding the recording (the only one of the night of which I'm aware), so...here it is: Enjoy!
