Audience recording
Buffalo was the second night of the tour
as the band launches Aero 2.0. 
A pre-show radio report kicks off the
upload, setting the scene for the show. 
The taper made a nice recording, ruined
only by a woman nearby who feel the
need to scream now and then.  Tyler has
a throat issue this night (he tells the
crowd...while his voice sounds fine,
the show is on the short side and
"Walk This Way" is not played.  The band's new tunes on this night are played differently than they would be later as the band works out its arrangements on stage.  Interesting show in that in may ways it's a whole new band that is taking the stage.
 
Remaster notes: I was at this show, so I was happy to find a decent quality recording of it.  There was a low hum on the tape that I attenuated with noise reduction, and I EQd it to try to get rid of the big boomy sound of The Aud.  A small patch was made to give Walkin' the Dog a more distinct beginning, as the start had been clipped by the tape flip.  The encore break was also skipped by the taper, so the final song has been joined to the main set.
 
Also, kudos to the taper.  I love it when someone manages to get the radio ad or pre-show on tape to go with the bootleg.  Thanks, guys.
