OldNeumanntapr Notes:
This was the only time that I have ever seen Dick Dale play a complete acoustic show, and he had his son Jimmy with him as well! (The last time, I believe, that I saw ‘little Jimmy’ was at the Catalyst in Santa Cruz in January of 1995 when Jimmy had just turned three-years old.)
I searched online for a concert photo of Dick Dale with an acoustic guitar and all I could find were pics when he was holding ‘The Beast’, his gold Fender electric guitar. I guess this was the only time that he did a tour entirely acoustic. (Dick would play a couple of songs acoustic at some of his shows, but it was always in the middle of an electric set.) I thought it was cool, but I’ve NEVER had much interest in this recording because it wasn’t the typical Dick Dale electric show. I’ve seen and recorded Dick Dale a number of times and I thought this show was different and special. My fiend Steve from work saw this show with me and we stood just to the left of the front center ceiling post about eight feet from the stage. RIP Dick! You were amazing!

OldNeumanntapr Notes;
After hearing ‘Snake Farm’ played again and again on K-Pig FM I knew that I had to see (and record) Ray Wylie Hubbard. Ray is an awesome story teller who has a very funny, self-deprecating humor. I really wish more tapers were recording him. I love the acoustics of the Lobero Theatre, and my recordings always sound good in there, in part because of the polite quiet crowd. This was the very last show that I was able to transfer with my Tascam DA-30 because the transport broke down directly after. This was, I believe, the last ‘Sings Like Hell’ series show that I was able to see and record at the Lobero. Ray told some funny stories at this show, such as playing solo acoustic in a shrimp restaurant and finally hearing what sounded like applause from a single patron, but it turned out to be a guy slapping the bottom of a ketchup bottle. He also told a story about describing his drive and determination as a musician to a younger concert attendee; “When your folks tell you to go to college so you will have sometime to fall back on in case your music doesn’t pan out, don’t do that! Then you too will have that drive.” Too funny! I remember that my friend Rick came with me to the show that night and neither of us had seen Ray before and we listened to a soundboard in my truck of Ray Wylie Hubbard from Texas that was recorded a few years previously. As we got near the theatre we saw a Jeep Cherokee with Texas plates and knew we were in the right place! I met Ray in the meet and greet room behind the theater after the show and told him that my friend Roger from Oklahoma encouraged me to go see him play.

New mics in a new stealth arraignment lead to three things I don’t care for. One of these impacts the enjoyment for me. This is a thumping that I cause. You will hear it at the end of most songs. I might do a fix later, but it is very tedious, enjoy.

The hardest thing for me about this new hobby is not being to show my love for the musicians. I guess they will just have get by on my money.

OldNeumanntapr Notes;
Neil was in town for The Sun Came Out (the Neil Finn / Crowded House / 7 Worlds Collide movie) that premiered at the Santa Barbara Film Festival. He played one show at SOhO, in Santa Barbara after the Film Festival and my friend Dave and I went and I recorded the concert. The first half of the shows seemed to consist of songs from the film, and the second half featured old favorites. This was my second time seeing a show at SOhO, the first being the previous May for Willie Waldman and the North Indiana Allstars. To date, this was the last time that I have recorded Neil Finn.

OldNeumanntapr Notes;
I was 14 years old when Pink Floyd first performed The Wall at the Los Angeles Sports Arena and I have been upset ever since that I wasn’t able to attend the shows. When I heard that Roger was going to perform The Wall again, 30 years after the initial run, I was bound and determined to see (and record) one of the shows. I went to this show with my friend Dave and his friend Wayne, who drove. That was nice, because I can’t stand city driving. This was my first, and so far, only time seeing a show at the ’Shark Tank’. I thought the sound was incredible and the visuals were even better. It’s obvious that Roger is a perfectionist because every aspect of this show was A+. I was in the third row of the balcony on the left side, and the left PA stack was no more than 50 to 60 feet away. The beginning of ‘In The Flesh’ is cut because there was an usher to my right as the show started who was showing some people to their seats and I was reluctant start the recording with security so close. When I Did start the DAT rolling, almost instantly I heard a voice close to me saying, ’Sir there is NO recording!’ I cringed and thought. ‘How the hell did they find me so soon?’, and I froze waiting for a hand on the shoulder. (You can hear it on the recording.) It was then I realized that the same usher was busting someone in the row ahead of me and one seat to the right for using a small video camera, and it wasn’t me that she was speaking to. It definitely got my heart rate up for a minute!!! When the show started there were two yahoos behind me who were screaming their heads off non stop. They quieted down a bit as the show progressed and then disappeared at the break and did not return. For the most part, the majority of the rest of the crowd around me were fairly well behaved. The second set was a lot quieter still, from what I remember. I walked into this show thinking that the almost $100 I spent on the ticket (with ‘convenience’ fees) was a Big chunk of change for me to spend, and I walked out knowing in my heart that it was worth every penny! (The date on the tickets were marked Dec 6 because the show was postponed one day. I don’t remember exactly why but I think it was because they needed more time in Los Angeles.) About this time I met Daspyknows on an internet taping site and he agreed to seed my recording of the Dec 7 show because the batteries in his preamp failed that night. Five and a half years later I’m finally getting ready to send it out to be uploaded again, this time with my own text file, tags, and a scan of my ticket. So consider this a reseed.
