OldNeumanntapr Notes-
This was the last time that I was to see and record the Allman Brothers Band. The SB County Bowl is a small intimate venue that holds about 3,500 people. We were up front in the 8th row. Space was tight and I had to run my gear under the seat but as I remember I believe that they let us bring in microphone stands this time, as opposed to back in 1992.

Taper Notes:
I had heard that the Allman Brothers were becoming taping friendly and trying to attract some of the Dead’s taper crowd. When I got to the County Bowl that afternoon I noticed that the sign that says ‘No Cameras, Tape Recorders, Weapons, Etc’, had black electrical tape over the words ‘tape recorders’. I took that as a Good Sign! They let me in with no problem after I explained that my bag contained Only audio taping equipment; my usual spiel. I just wish that the head of security had clued in the rest of the staff! The security sure tried to hassle me as I was setting up my mics. They were clueless that the Allmans allowed taping. The Bowl wouldn’t allow mic stands so I had to hold a T-Bar with the CM-300s on it the whole night. Man, was my arm tired later! As I was setting up my mics on the T-Bar, this security guy comes over, frowns, and says, ‘What are Those?’ Ah, microphones, says I. ‘What are they FOR?’, he asks. For Recording, says I. I Almost added, ‘Is this a trick question’? It seemed obvious to me what they were for! ‘We’ll see about this!’ he says, and storms off. A little while later he comes back, about 20 feet away, looks at me and shrugs his shoulders and shakes his head as he walked away! I had a lady complain to me that they wouldn’t let her bring in a camera so why was I able to tape the show? Hey, rules are rules. I asked her if she’d ever had a flash go off in her eyes but she wasn’t listening. There were a couple of other tapers there that night but I think that I was the closest to the stage. I’ve never seen another recording of this show from another source in circulation. Anyway, this was my 1st Allman Brothers concert and I thought that they were awesome. I loved the interplay between the musicians. Warren was on fire!!! Hootchie Coochie Man sent chills down my back. He is such a bluesman! I had seen and recorded the Dead since early 1986 but I understood after the show why people say that NOBODY COOKS LIKE THE ALLMAN BROTHERS!!! Blues Traveler opened the show and I recorded them with the same Nakamichi CM-300s->Sony WMD-D6C rig. Even now, after seeing the Allmans quite a few times over the years, I have to say that the 1992 line up is still one of my favorite incarnations of the band.
