 I saw this show on KM's wanted list and it reminded me of the discussion surrounding the 2000 MSG flood that Cate 
started on Jungleland last year. A few folks thought that many of those shows were in fact lossy. At that time I dug out 
these discs and checked them. I made the mistake of putting the discs in with my downloads instead of in my to-be-ripped 
stack. 
 They are lossless for sure  but the recording itself was rather bland. I remember optimizing the discs back in 2001 on my 
Tascam 700cd-rw and being disappointed with the results. 
 This time I did an edit/remix/remaster (whatever you want to call it) to improve the sound. The difference is pretty damn 
good if I say so myself. I've included an A/B comparison of Code of Silence if you are unsure if this is for you. The 
analysis captures are from after the remix.

Hope you enjoy. Buckshot.

Known faults:
Very enthusiastic crowd. Especially between songs.
A few short microphone bumps/cover ups? throughout.
Backstreets has a small dropout @ 2:17 

Audience tape - Lots of controversy surrounding the "American Skin" track - so Bruce plays it anyway. Brand new track,
written by Joe Grushecky, to open the show and the second run through Further On Up The Road in the set.
