This is the 2nd and final night of my "Blind Melon Weekend 2008" at an excellent new venue called
The Slowdown in Omaha NE.

I'd like to give a special thanks to the cool group of guys from South Dakota who graciously gave
up their prime spot on the first row of the balcony directly over the stage and 10 feet from the PA
stack. Because of this spot I was rewarded with an excellent sounding tape, virtually soundboard
quality since I was so close to the PA but still got some ambience from the crowd.

The show itself was excellent and the band even more on fire than the night before in St. Paul. The
only tiny negative...and I mean tiny...is the fact that Travis was having some trouble hitting
the extremely high notes probably due to the weather and traveling. The band more then pick of
the slack and deliver another superb show for only 15 bucks! You just can't beat that.

Once again, I would advise all my fellow tapers to check out this band and record them with either
video or audio since they are completely open taping. Even the band members collect these bootlegs!
