Notes: taper's comments: This was the maiden voyage for my new mics, and I think the results are quite good, considering the show took place in a small neighborhood bar...there's some crowd chatter here and there, but because of my proximity to the PA speaker, most of the chatty folks sitting at the bar didn't disrupt my recording :) This was the final night of a 4 show mini-tour for Rory and Cindy, and the 2nd of them I was able to attend...although it was a cold night, Rory and Cindy heated up 'the Sportsmen' with their blend of bluesy soulfulness and guitar mastery - enjoy!
