* dedicated to "Dudley" who was the other guitar player in Trey's high school band, Space Antelope

show notes:
Caravan was played for the first time since September 25, 1991 (214 shows)

notes:
approx 9 seconds into Fee, there is an approx 4 second drop-out.
I silenced the loud digital "clicks" at the start and end of this drop-out. This drop-out is on the DAT.
It's actually not too disruptive, please don't let that keep you away from this otherwise wonderful sounding source.
Not to mention, at this point in time, this is the only source available for this show...

I also minimized three very short spots of digi-noide in Poor Heart, at 1:49.4, 1:49.7, and at 2:13.7. These spots were also on the DAT. I've made it better and less noticeable, but it's not perfect.
