- Removed a couple of loud balloon pops on track 14 (Circus Cats)
- during track 21, a particularly nasty collision between a drunk concertgoer and my mic stand caused the left mic to be knocked off of the stand. So during the time it took me to get the mic back on the stand, I copied the right channel to the left, resulting in a mono recording during track 21 (19th Nervous Breakdown) from approx. 59 seconds into the song through 1:12 and a slightly shaky recording for the next few seconds as I was reorienting the mic stand. It was a tough late-night crowd full of people who were really messed up after a long night of partying! It was hard to keep people from knocking into my mic stand...
- It seemed that the band was done after "Last One Ever" -- after waiting more than 5 minutes after they were done, the venue turned the house lights on and the DJ started playing, so I started packing up my gear. The band "surprised" us and came back on for another 40 minutes! So during the beginning of Heartbeats I was still putting my mics back onto the stand and I'm missing the 1st few seconds.
- There are a couple of seconds missing from "What A Wonderful World" due to a need for a battery change.
