The Northstar Session Opened
Memorial Day Free Concert Celebration

OldNeumanntapr Notes-
This was a free Memorial Day concert at the Cliffs in Pismo Beach, outdoors on a bluff right next to the ocean. My friend Abe was celebrating a birthday there with a ‘silly hat’ party. (Photos included, shot by the taper with a Nikon D300 with 80-200 f/2.8 AF Nikkor and a 20 mm f/2.8 AF Nikkor. Included with the band are shots of Abe with his silly ‘fish head’ hat, as well as the taper’s wife [dressed in silly hat] with her dachshund Chloe. Even the taper got into the act, dressed in full tie die and holding Chloe.) Abe knew Lech, one of the band members, and asked him if I could plug into the board and he said no worries. As mentioned previously, the output that I plugged into was turned off, I didn’t know the board or its controls, and the sound man (Kip Stork from SLO Brew) was busy and it took seven minutes to get his attention and for him to find the level pot to turn on the output. The band marched through the crowd during one song while continuing to play. Thanks so much to the band for allowing me to record through the board!

Do NOT Convert To MP3.
Enjoy! Share freely, don’t sell, play nice, don’t run with scissors, etc. 😉

Comments from original uploader: Scarcely circulated multianalog generation SBD recording. It has hiss – you’ve been warned. This is the raw transfer without any noise reduction.

The setlist of this recording differs from that on thejerrylist.com on the last 2 songs of the late show which lists “Tore Up Over You” and “Ride Mighty High” as the final two tracks. The end of DLG is not cut on this recording as listed on thejerrysite, though there was a small drop out on the master which was seamlessly removed (see below). There is no audible break in the music between the end of Don’t Let Go and How Sweet It Is. Quiet on-stage banter can be heard at a low level from the end of DLG that continues on through the countoff into How Sweet It Is. The version of “How Sweet It Is” is different than the one played during the early show and at the end Jerry says “Goodnight”.

Flaws:
d1t01 – first few notes missing
d1t04 – d/o at 08:41 removed using SF6 with a small amount of music missing.
d2t02 – d/o @ 07:08 with truncation of “yankee laid him in his grave” and the rest of the verse.
d2t06 – d/o @ 10:26 with small subsecond bit of missing music.
d3t03 – d/o @ 19:33 with a “BEEP” in the middle deleted with no apparent missing music.
There are a few tape pauses between tracks however the overall recording quality/level of hiss remains the same for the entire show, suggesting the entire recording is from a single source. The pitch was flat and I increased by .02 semitones corresponding to a transposition ratio of 1.01162 using SF6.

another installment of the misSHN in the rain, 2/04.

Comments: Scarcely circulated multianalog generation SBD recording without any noise reduction.

The setlist on this recording differs from thejerrysite.com which reports “Mission In The Rain” was played after “A Strange Man”, but was missing from the tape but confirmed by person in attendence. This recording has “I’ll Take A Melody” and “Stop That Train”. There is no gross difference in the recorded sources preceding A Strange Man and I’ll Take A Melody to suggest they come from a different source than the remainder of the recording. If you don’t believe it’s real, just don’t burn disc 2 :-p

Flaws:
d1t04 – d/o @ 5:45 removed with SF6.
Pauses between tracks.
