The show was recorded by our friend Dave Sheldon and a few songs were supposed to be released on some sort of DVD. Nothing ever seemed to come from it, so we asked Dave to send us what he recorded. He mixed and mastered it, and we were surprised by how good it sounded. So we have decided to release this recording as a free (or pay what you want) download as well as a cassette limited to only 50 copies."
