Notes

the bass player was very loud in the mix making the recording right channel heavy at times. I left it alone.

also the sound was quite shitty while standing there listening.... dialed in better for the second set though. this recording sounds better than my live experience.

Subject: A tale of two sets

First set of this opening night was a monster. One of the best furthur 1's I've caught actually. Cassidy was gorgeous and went deep as the ocean. Cumberland Blues was where the house lit up - absolutely raging Billy Graham's namesake

Set two wanders a lot. Specifically the viola lee sections. They sounded lost and the NFA reprise, while nice, lacked even a solo by John and ended things on a lower energy note. Liberty was a great choice for the encore though, great way to end on a high note.

Dank show, best of the run IMO

Subject: Furthur just brings it!!

Furthur just does it for me,more than any other band that I see Im an 80s head so we didnt see alot of the songs that are regulars on tour, Viola is one of them really hot and groovy! Not unhappy with the first night at all SOTM always does it for me,plzz no offence but I love Phil singing Eyes. NFA sandwich coolness as always, Best part of the show walked in and met a FB friend by chance and hung out all weekend. Thanks Furthur for a real good time(~);}

Woohoo!
NFA opener was fun. Cassidy was very very well done. Cumberland Blues was BANGIN'! The crowd, or at least the section I was in, just blew up.
Second set was a fucking monster. China>Rider, especially the Rider, was outstanding. Eyes>MS>TOO>Viola was just a blast, nice Standing on the Moon closer.

Was I the only one disappointed with Liberty encore? It's not the way that it was played - it's the song itself. Oh well, it seems like a lot of people enjoyed it.

Subject: nice to see the show up...but where are all the sbd's?

Good job by the taper.

What happened to all the official sbd's (aka souveneir releases) after 12/31/11???

Reviewer: US Blues - - January 5, 2013
Subject: Thank you!!

Nice to see a high-resolution recording, and happy to know you'll be sharing all three nights- many thanx!!

Reviewer: galapogos griff - - January 5, 2013
Subject: Thanks for the recording

(((((Tapers))))))))

Thanks man. I agree that the sound for the 1st set was spotty at times. Not sure why that would be considering they would have had plenty of time to get it right before hand????

Subject: the bassist

the next two nights are coming. yeah, the bassist was way too cranked up in the mix/off the stage -- to the point of distorting his own playing as he was frequently muddy (that room is really only good for boat shows). the vocals were often drowned out, as were the cymbals and toms. i did not hear the high-hat until midway through the 1st set of the second night. perhaps it was where i was situated? 7' to the right of the foh guy... nah, it was just a mess. the next two nights were certainly better sound-wise.

Subject: the bass player .. ?

you know i don't think i have ever heard phil referred to a simply, "the bass player." i like it.

thank you to the taper for an outstanding job, really hoping to see 12/30 and 12/31 pop up somewhere, soon, am about to break down and buy the official downloads but i really don't want to do that!

somebody, please -- 12/30 and 12/31 .....

Subject: Heavy Bass

"the bass player was heavy in the mix making the right channel heavy." I'm in stitches over here. Thanks man. I can't wait to hear the other two night too.

Reviewer: yilano - - January 4, 2013
Subject: Turn up the bass player.

Personally, I like it when the bass player for this band is so loud that he hits all of your chakra points at once;)
