The Florida Guitar Army meets the Long Island Airhorn Army. Actually, the airhorns aren't that bad. I can't imagine sitting in front of the guy with the airhorn, though. It must have been excruciating.

I limited a very loud snare shot at the beginning of track 1, and added some high end w/ the BBE Sonic Maximizer. The left channel was louder than the right one; I balanced them (a 1dB adjustment) and used the L3 Ultramaximizer to increase headroom. No other processing, other than dithering back to 16 bits.

The recording fades out after Hope You Don't Mind, and begins abruptly with Stick Around for Rock 'n Roll. It's probably just a cassette tape flip.
