**************************
Tapers notes: This show was very close to not being recorded, so I'm pleased with how it ended up turning out. I was watching the forecast on the way down to Clear Lake (about a 2.5 hour drive) and it looked like rain was going to let up around 5:45, and for a 6:00 show that was perfect timing. Well, that time kept moving backwards, and it never did stop raining throughout the whole show. Before the concert, I told myself if the rain got any harder, I would pack it in (it was more than a sprinkle but less than a downpour). Thankfully, the rain stayed pretty stable and I ended up sticking it out, and got to use my umbrella for the first time with my stand. I think it turned out pretty well, I had to use the iZotope RX De-Click tool to get rid of some of the more distracting raindrops, but they are basically confined to in between songs.
