Yonder Mountain String Band
October 6th 2007 at the Congress Theater in Chicago IL

I nailed this recording! I am very pleased with the way it came out.
There are some wonderful Nagra moments on this one. I was surprised
how good this came out. I worked very hard to find the sweet spot during
the Wood Brothers set and the fruits of that work came shing through.
I had a false start at the very beginning of the show and missed the first
5 to 10 seconds. Quality control right to your ears. Enjoy folks!!

I also recorded the Milwaukee Rave show and will post that soon.
