Oldneumanntapr Notes;
This was my very first String Cheese Incident show. My friend Dave and I drove down to Santa Barbara to see the show. I had heard that the band was taping friendly, but when I walked in and asked about recording I was asked if I wanted a straight board recording or a matrix. That blew me away! I elected for a straight board recording, and I gave my D7 DAT and patch cable to one of the band’s crew who plugged it into a long chain of DATs on a plastic folding table. They ran all the decks so I had nothing to do for this show but to sit back and watch the performance. I was amazed with how tight they were. Progressive bluegrass at its best!!! This show definitely made me a SCI fan!!
The next time I saw them, again at the Coach House North the following year in 1999, they no longer allowed soundboard access but still welcomed audience recording. It was good while it lasted! The Coach House North, formally the Red Dog Saloon, is a small club with a really low ceiling in Santa Barbara, close to Milpas Street near the beach.
