View Notes...And yet another installment from the 'PA Deli Mike' project!!!

If you liked the March 10th show seeded recently, you'll love this one from the 12th, too. Mike's taping location was identical on this evening to two nights prior (Section 'CTR', row 'FF', seat '5'), and the SQ is just as sweet.  As for disc 1 track 7,the 'spray me Bobby Guy' is near the OTS, and not up front as suggested in the text of the FOB recording of this show with source ID 10256.

As with all of Mike's recordings, this source is new to circulation.
Hope you all enjoy it, and stay tuned for the next installment coming soon!!!

Taper Notes:

View NotesNotes:
D2T1: The very beginning of "Touch of Grey" cuts in. Seems to be approximately five seconds missing.
D2T4: At the end of "space", Jerry and Bob tease "Throwing Stones", then the tape is flipped. This was a direct flip (no rewinding); only a few seconds appear to be missing.
D2T7: Deadbase erroneously lists Matt Kelly on "Not Fade Away".

ENJOY! -- :)
