Flaws:
Levels shift a little during the first song but remain consistant for the rest of the set.
There were 3 sections of d1t01 that had very loud static on the left channel. I believe this was due to the imput cable being moved.  I used Nero Wave Editor to map the right channel audio to the left to cover up the static.  While it is not perfect it is much better than it was.  The source is super clean.  There times when Michael is playing solo acoustic that the levels barley measure.  The entire source DAT had a low level and was normalized to -1 DB and a volume adjustment was applyed with Nero.

Notes:

Xavier Rudd opened the show.  Michael Franti sits in on Xaiver's last song.  The Xavier set from the same source has been uploaded to archive.org as well.  It is worth downloading and should alway accompany this show.

This is a must have show.  Sling TIng Open!?!  No No No !?!  Flashlight!?!  Wow!

Enjoy!
