watt's thoughts on this gig:

let me tell everyone here my thoughts on this show:

it was very frustrating for me cuz my bass amp overheated
early and lost all punch and definition. I couldn't hear much of
anything I was playing after a couple of tunes and it was very hard
to get into. perk and nels said the same after the gig though they
played great. norton painted like a champ. willie was blowin'. for
me, I know there's been much better banyan shows so please don't
think this is a typical banyan show here. kind of embarrassing for me
people might think this is the best representation of banyan live.
it's a crippled show cuz of crippled equipment. I have since added
fans to my amp and haven't had this problem.

all MP3's are encoded at 192 kb/s.
find out about .SHN (Shorten) files and find a decoder HERE.
use the typical 'right-click' & 'save target as' to download each file
or use a program like FlashGet to make life easier.

if you have any more historical info or corrections, please let me know
