Source A: Unknown Mini Disc Recording

Notes: Sound is ok but has track-transition issues. Which means that this could either be simply mastered by a novice or be sourced from MP3. At this point, this recording is the only known source for the entire show. I do not think this is from MP3 because it sounds like little bits of info are actually missing or cut. MP3s do not do this, they generally just have un-smooth track transitions. It just seems like whomever mastered this to CD just cut almost all the crowd from in-between songs.  All in all, a good recording but there is a little layer of fuzz which makes me think this could be from a DAT source. There is also a little bit of talking right by the taper. Which is interesting. You can hear them discussing the 'bridge' if Schism --- insightful. No, really.

Notes: The sound is relatively good. However, there is quite a bit of crowd yelling & screaming but I don't think that there really is anything the taper could've done to prevent this. "Whhhoooahhhahha!!!" I am quite sure that refuse was trying to be cautious whilst recording & that is reflected by the fact that you can only see the band or screens for a little bit of time. If you combined all of the shots -not- in black, the total time would be like 2 minutes tops. The majority of the show features the black lens of the camera. A few times, you can see a little light sometimes. This is also cut due to taper's discretion. The audio is relatively decent as well but with all the screaming & whatnot, would probably be best left for collector's. This is an incomplete recording as well. The filmer stops recording after reflection.

Maynardism:
"Good evening. Are you prepared?"
Maynardism:
"Thank you very much for your patience, your support & hopefully, we'll see some of you again tomorrow. That's about 22 hours from now. I suggest that you all, as a statement, an artistic statement, get naked until then. Just take it all off. Just as a statement. All except the guys. No statement needs to be made except you down here by the stage with the black  hat & black shirt; you are kind of cute. Nothing we like more than a bunch of sweaty little boys, shirtless, rubbing up against each other. This song is dedicated to them"
Maynardism:
"Think for yourself, question authority. Think for yourself, question authority. And of  course, get naked"
