notes:

Steve leaves the stage for "With a Memory Like Mine" and "I Have Endured."

This source was recorded directly in front of the stage. Originally, I was dfc, but the sound was more prominent from the stereo pa speakers on the stage lip than it was front-center, so I stood directly in front of one of these monitors (the one that was located on the right-center of the stage). Doing this, however, threw the subs off-axis for me, so I had to boost the low end, using a gentle bell curve that crests @ 223 Hz. This is more processing than I normally care for, but in this case, the DSP is completely justified.

I hope you enjoy listening to this show as much as I enjoyed taping it - this is a fantastic performance! Do NOT sell this recording in any shape or form. This source may be distributed freely; please make copies and spread the music - it is perfectly legal to do so, and it is also encouraged. Just remember that selling this, in part or in whole, is absolutely illegal!
