OldNeumanntapr Notes:
This was the last Bridge School Benefit that I recorded, and the first with the custom hat-loaded Nyquist Omnis. We had a seat this time, as compared to the first two years in 1991 and 1992 when I froze my behind off up on the lawn. Shoreline can get cold for the Bridge shows, especially because they are always in October or November. I had seen The Barenaked Ladies before, in Avila Beach, and I knew they were good and funny as well. I hadn’t ever seen The Wallflowers, R.E.M., Sarah McLachlan, or Phish before so that was a treat. I really liked the acoustic Phish show, much more than when I saw them play electric. They really seemed to be having fun during their set. I really enjoyed hearing Sarah and Phish sing the Cat Steven’s song ‘Sad Lisa’. I noticed that when REM played there was someone recording with large diaphragm microphones, which could have been AKG 414s. I’ve never seen that source circulate before however. My friends Dave and Brian were with me, and my ex-wife Nikki, at this show. I think Dave had a single seat down in the 100 sections, but Brian was seated next to me on my right. At the end of the Phish show I turned to Brian and said, “I was waiting for you to say, There’s that scruffy guy with the hat again”, which is what he said, referring to Neil Young, at a previous Bridge School Benefit.

OldNeumanntapr Notes:
This was the third Bridge show in a row that I recorded. This year we had reserved seats in SEC 204. It was nice having a place to sit but I think recording off the repeaters gave a better sound to the recording (Unless you were blessed to have SEC 100 series seats.) I love hearing Neil acoustic, and especially with other guest musicians. This was the only time I’d ever seen Warren Zevon, or Melissa Etheridge. I don’t remember why I elected not to record Heart. Maybe I was trying to conserve tape? I don’t know. I don’t personally care for the band Van Halen, but it was nice to see Eddie playing acoustic. I like Sammy’s acoustic playing a lot. I had first heard him play acoustic on a recording of the ’89 Bridge show. Those tapes were the catalyst that made me want to see and record a Bridge show for myself. I love recording Bonnie Raitt, and have enjoyed her music ever since I recorded her opening for the Dead on NYE in ’89, but Simon and Garfunkel was the reason I was there that night. My ex wife Nikki and I had listened to a LOT of Simon and Garfunkel albums when we were first married in 1984. That set was like a dream come true, because I never thought I would get to see them reunite.

This comes from the same taper that recorded the previous day, which I just uploaded here.

You might remember that I also uploaded the Nyquist Omni source in Nov 2014.

I haven’t heard the Schoeps CCM4 source.

It’s possible that this new torrent is another copy of the Schoeps source.

It’s also possible that this is a new source altogether.

If anyone can compare and tell me, I’d appreciate it.

This was shortly after Bill Berry’s departure and the release of their first post-Berry album Up.

They didn’t tour this album so their headliner appearances at these Bridge School benefits was a big deal at the time.

Several songs get their live debut here, including Neil Young playing lead guitar on “Country Feedback.”

This also includes last song from his set, which has REM joining in.

Thanks goes out to Rich for collecting and providing the this DAT source.

OldNeumanntapr Notes-
This was my first Bridge School Benefit and I was so glad to be there. I’ve seen/recorded four Bridge School Benefits and this one was my favorite. I don’t know if it was the band line up, or because it my first Bridge show, or if it was because of Bill Graham’s recent passing, but there was a lot of energy in the air. I really wanted to record a Bridge show, after having obtained 1st generation cassettes of the 1989 show. I believe that this is the first time that I recorded Neil Young. My friends Dave, Brian, and Rick met up with my ex wife and me at the show. They had reserved seats, while I wanted to be near the repeater speakers on the lawn to record. Dave told me that, though there was a pat down search getting into Shoreline, they would allow you to bring in food. I had the idea to take a small box of saltine crackers and hollow it out. I cut down the cellophane wrappers and only left about 15 crackers in each wrapper. My D6 fit perfectly inside the box, and I left it open with the remaining crackers exposed. We brought in a small tupperware of sliced cheese and cold cuts, and some sealed bottled water. I had a canvas bag with a solid sturdy bottom to hold everything. I took the microphones and custom XLR >RCA shortened cables and used a velcro Ace Bandage to conceal them on my body. Fortunately, being November, we had heavy coats that further concealed the gear. (It was really cold up on that lawn in November!) I opened the bag when we went through security, being careful to not let the gate people notice the added weight of the recorder inside, and we went in without a hitch. I ran the Nakamichi microphones in a Levi jacket, with holes sewn into the front two pockets so the capsules would protrude. I used hollowed out 35 mm film can lids to go over the microphone bodies to keep them from falling through the bottom of the pockets. As long as I stood near the repeater speakers it worked really well. I also had long hair that I wore down to further conceal the microphones. The recorder went into a hip pack so I was totally self contained. This was a really emotional weekend, with the recent death of Bill Graham. Tracy Chapman dedicated ‘Amazing Grace’ to Bill during her set. Nils Lofgren, who played the most touching set of any Bridge set I ever saw, made repeated references to Bill and told a story of getting caught by Graham trying to sneak into the Fillmore East. Nils Lofgren’s song ‘Big Tears Fall’ was very powerful. Nils asked the crowd if there were any parents in the crowd, and I remember thinking of our daughter Lucy, who was born in May of ’91 and was at home with Nikki’s folks while we went to the shows. I had just recorded two very emotional Grateful Dead shows at the Oakland Coliseum on October 27 and October 31. The 10/27/91 show was the first Dead show after Bill’s helicopter crash, (They opened with Bill’s favorite Dead song ’Sugar Magnolia’), and the Halloween show featured Ken Kesey as a special guest. After the Bridge School Benefit show, Nikki and I drove my ’67 VW camper bus to Atherton where we parked in front of my friend Karl’s friend’s parent’s house. Sunday morning we got up early and drove to Golden Gate Park to record the Bill Graham Benefit, which was another emotional all day event. It was billed as ‘Laughter, Love, And Music’. It was quite the weekend. I heard later that Dave, who didn’t stay overnight to see the Sunday Bill Graham memorial concert, ran out of gas driving his friends home in the middle of the night near Santa Margarita, CA.
