Notes: This show is a major train wreck.  The currently circulating copy suffers from being too fast as well as numerous cuts, dropouts, and diginoise.  I obtained a copy on DAT that was labelled "R2>D".  That copy had its own set of problems including being too fast.  Fortunately, the pitch at the beginning of this copy seemed correct, and so that speed was used as a baseline to speed-correct this copy.  There were also patches from that DAT to either remove spots of digi-noise or to fill in cuts made at the following locations:

d1t3  5:46 - 6:14
d1t4  0:39 - 0:41
d2t1  3:24 - 3:27
d2t2  1:30 - 1:32
d2t3  2:16 - 2:50, 6:29 - 6:50
d2t4  2:13 - 2:24, 2:45 - 2:58, 3:04 - 3:11, 3:28 - 3:29, 3:35 there is a cut -- The alternate copy did have about 15 seconds more material, but since there was still a cut, I didn't bother to patch.
d3t5  9:01 - 9:34
d3t7  1:11
d3t7  2:36 - end of the show

Overall, there are still a few minor spots of noise here and there, but I think this is a definite improvement over the currently circulating copy.

Remastered, transferred to CD, and encoded to SHN by David Hollister; 3/5/03.
Enjoy!
