Jamband (Mark) recruited me to upload his Boston show recording (he mentions above) on his behalf, to share in the Forum. To that end, he mailed me his CDR's of the show. The sound quality's good, except there's one major problem. He doesn't know how it happened, but over half the songs recorded have an audio drop out of exactly 10 seconds in length in the middle of the song. The audio file I received from Mark has all those ten second silent gaps. I'll need to use Audacity software to edit out the gaps. This will leave a bunch of songs suddenly jumping ahead 10 seconds, although nearly half the songs are complete. This show will be more labour intensive getting it ready than the other 2013 shows upped already, & unfortunately, it can't help but end up being the least good of the lot, just because of all those gaps. The recording's also missing the final encore song of the show, unfortunately. I still enjoyed listening to it, despite its serious drawbacks, & I imagine there are other people who'd like to hear it, perhaps especially those who attended the Boston show.
Someone else did leave an encouraging message at one of my yt uploads stating they have a good quality audio recording of the Boston show. I sent him a message to his yt Inbox some days ago, but haven't heard word back, which doesn't seem like a good sign. But if that recording turns up, so much the better.
So, look for a 2013 Boston show recording to be posted in the Boots list, fairly soon, hopefully.
