Absolutely fantastic!

Thank you again for another great tape. Two things amaze me about this:

1) I was there and have forgotten a lot of the records.

2) How the hell did you manage to get a portable recorder to run for almost 2.1/2 hours without changing the batteries! My poxy Alba used to last about an hour at most before the two U2 batteries started to give up and the tape would run slower and slower until it stopped. If only I could have fed it some gear so that it was running at the same speed as me!  `

I will have a hunt around the attic over Christmas and see if I can find any tapes that I made at the time I will send them to you

Beats me how anyone can remember if they were there or not, not that i`m doubting anyone i`m really not. But I wouldn`t have a clue myself...... it`s a possibility? :g:

I can even remember what gear I had that night Steve.  I can remember being sick soon as I got off the coach back home, remember sitting out in the field waiting for the eyes to go back to normal...some nights you remember, some you don't, there's a hundred that I've forgotten about but it's usually the ones I recorded that I remember, mainly cos you can hear me and friends talking on them

There are lots of nights I do remember, some as if they were yesterday and I always remember the gear I had but not specifically the actual night/month/year.......I suppose that bit wasn`t as important to store. I also was a recording freak early on, someone (Probably mum & dad) bought me an ITT "Portable" tape recorder and I used to load up with batteries and set it up behind one of the speakers in front of the stage, keep checking my Casio LED watch so`s I could replace or turn over the cassette and it was always where I left it!.....happy times:lol:
