Notes:
Thanks to Chuck for the patch and for running his rig. There was a right
channel dropout up until a bit over 1 minute into the drums at the
beginning and I just mixed the left channel over to the right for
that part.

hahahaha they covered the Raconteurs? that's great. well actually i found that album to be disappointing. but it's great all the same. personally i would've chose Broken Boy Soldier, that song is wicked.

Awesome harry - thanks!! I just talked to a friend who was there and said this set was really good. He mentioned that while a lot of the songs are typical of what they play, a lot of them sounded re-worked and different from the past. Can't wait to hear it!

[ScS]

thanks for getting it up so quick harry. i was hoping for a fat king of gods but ill take what they give us.

I think that first tune is called Kings Of California but I am not sure. I also think there is a dropout in the middle. Anyone else hear that?

[harrymcq]

Sopraraq also mentioned it was called Skull and Bones... Hi from Mexico btw! I didn't notice a dropout on my tape Clinton and have listened multiple times, though it is possible since I had a flaky coax cable. Give me a time and I'll check in a week...

I have listened to this multiple times and really love this set. I didn't think I could love a SMMD more than last HSMF late nite opening for MMJ but I think this one took the cake. I still have to sit down and write a decent review but I need to get some sleep b4 I go scuba tomorrow!

Oh yeah. I meant to update that. It is called Skull and Bones.

Don't forget to put the DA-P1 in lock mode so that is wont pause and unpause itself for a quick dropout. It will be blank instead. That helps you notice the dropouts much better.
