Tapers notes: My first attempt at recording with new mics, and the sound turned out pretty good to my ears. It rained right up until about 10 minutes before the show started, so I caught a break there, but wind still affects parts of the recording. It's worst at the start of set 2 for the first song or two, otherwise it's just a mild annoyance every so often in other parts of the show.

**************************
Tapers notes: First set of a 2 set show, unfortunately my recorder had an error at some point during set 2 and none of it recorded. This was the second time it happened in about a month, so I was pretty annoyed to say the least. I came to find out I was running older firmware, and literally the next version of the firmware for my recorder fixed the exact issue I was having. So, hopefully I won't have to deal with again, but unfortunately I only got the first set of this show because of it. Pretty good quality here, Church of Cash always puts on a great show.
