NOTES: This is a really in-your-face recording, a couple of
dozen decibels too much from being pretty much perfect.
There is a slight rattle during a goodly portion of it because
1) ol' Mike's seat was very close and 2) ol' Mike basically had
to push a button and hope for the best ... because he had no
prayer of manually dialing it in. Because ol' Mike was being 
shaken to the core by the vibrations, he assumed the resulting
recording would be totally distorted and unusable. Happily,
that wasn't the case. It's loud, all right, but surprisingly clear
and, again, very in-your-face (in joeyjay's opinion). Also, there's
some slight hiss throughout, too, but that should not scare you away.

It's possible someone with the talent and resources could 
remaster this and fix the clipping and such, but I decided 
first just to get this version out in its purity and we can go from
there. This version from this source is uncirculated; an edited 
version (taking out crowd between songs to make it fit on two
CDs) was given as mementos to the four people who accompanied
ol' Mike to the show ... including the huge Rush fan who screamed
"Bytor ... Give Me Bytor" (like he "somehow" knew that was coming!) just
before Rush came back for the encore (First encore: Bytor! Well, what do
ya know!) There is at least one other version of this show out there
that I know of (Smirnoff Stooges). I believe that one to be more cleanly
recorded, and as a result, slightly more subdued than this one. I think
they're both worthy additions to your collection. You decide on this one.
Enjoy. On with the show ...
