Technical: Sony ECM MS907 mic ->Sony TCD D100 DAT. Mic on right hand side of soundboard, (so marginally house right) 8’ up, circa 40’-45’ from stage. Transfer from DAT using DAT digital out via POC-DA12P optical cable and Soundblaster Audigy 2NX. Minor tweaks in Cool Edit 2000. Track cutting done with shntool v1.2.3 – all tracks cut on sector boundaries.
N.B. – times above are in hours:minutes:seconds.frames, with 75 frames per second, so for example the last track, listed as 0:00:52.01, is 52 and 1/75 seconds long. Just thought you might like to know that    (You’ll note that this show is on 2CDs, for the purpose of archiving the entire experience. Judicious editing of the “non-song” parts would allow it to fit on a single 80 minute disc.)
Overview: A good crowd, possibly the largest of the tour, and the band seemed to be really trying to put on a great show, but were obviously struggling massively with monitor problems. The house sound was generally very good, but the feedback and crackle from the monitors was all too apparent, added to which when the monitors weren't squealing they were kicking out no sound at all - PK certainly had this problem repeatedly, as did Slick. I also saw Slick gesture that Prairie needed stuff in his monitor (I think), and I believe Diana also remarked on stuff being missing from hers. A shame, as this caused the abbreviation of the set when the band sounded great out in the audience, especially the second half. In retrospect, the post-Slick segment may just have been the result of a “they can’t fix it so let’s get our heads down and just blast on regardless” mindset. 
Notes: Diana’s additional “rabbit” asides due to the fact that earlier that day the venue had hosted the Frome & District Rabbit Club Show!
