Recording comments
Lineage: AKG 460-B w/ ck1 capsules > Sony units: PCM-F1 Digital Audio Processor/SL-2000 Video beta > 24/192 FLAC using Nagra VII digital recorder
NOTES:
This tape starts partway into Dodo / Lurker and cuts shortly after, skipping to the middle section of the song. There's also a cut right after the intro to Mama and a few during the middle section. The rest of the songs on this tape are fine, though a few seconds are missing from the band introductions.

Show memories
I recall this as a magical gig. First off, it was at The Mecca Arena in Milwaukee, not the Civic Center [Noted - Simon_Funnell].
Opening: "Dodo" - it was clear that Mike's guitar was out by the end of "Lurker". The band went into "Carpet Crawlers" immediately thereafter. I suspect "Abacab" was supposed to go there, but they called an audible.
Phil greeted the crowd, and announced that this was National Daryl Steurmer Day after the opening, as Milwaukee was Daryl's hometown.
Phil was trying to kill time while the guitar techs were trying to solve Mike's technical issues - at one point, Phil was noticeably speechless, saying, "One doesn't really know what to say at this point." or something like that ... I also remember Phil joking to the audience, "Michael says his guitar was working when he bought it ..." and the audience erupted with laughter.
They began "That's All" without him - and when Mike finally joined in 3/4 of the way into the song, the crowd erupted. It was a blast.
I can remember the ITC Medley, when they went into "Unquiet Slumber for the Sleepers/In That Quiet Earth" - and my jaw dropped at the lighting effects.
This show was one of my favorite concert memories. [Myorkshire]

Interesting incident
Mike's guitar dies and they start that's all without him. Phil says mike will catch up later.
