Notes: String Cheese Incident with Sam Bush Hillside Stage, Merlefest, Wilkesboro, NC April 28, 2000 Source: DSBD Transfer: Sony D8-> Delta Dio 24/96 via coax-> Soundforge 4.5 (resampled to 44.1khz)-> CDWave for track splits-> mkwACT for shnning Transferred By: Jim Pollock ([email protected]) One Disc, One Set: 01. San Jose 02. Stingray 03. Steampowered Aeroplane-> Jam-> 04. Birdland 05. Round the Wheel-> 06. One Love A little history (for those who care): This set was the second of three that SCI played at their first (and only to date) Merlefest. It was played at about 1PM during a pouring rainstorm. It didn't seem to stop the action and to this date remains probably the single best set of SCI I've had the honor to witness. This DSBD surfaced a little while back. Merlefest is a notoriously non-taping festival, to the extent that when JonO extended a patch at the Main Stage on 4/27, festival authorities made him pull it back. It is essentially flawless, aside from a few spots of static here and there which are minor, but should be noted. I would assume they are related to the miserable weather that was happening. For the transfer, I ran the Clipped Peak Restoration tool in Soundforge to remove some of areas where my tape was overblown. In addition, the first two minutes of the show were balanced from a level standpoint with how the rest of the show sounds. I hope you enjoy the results of the work and hope this set brings you as much enjoyment as it has brought me. Jimbo

Dawn of Creation# Disc Two: 01. Sweet Melinda#-> 02. Midnight Moonlight*# Encore: 03. No Woman No Cry*# * with Billy Constable on banjo # with Peter Rowan on guitar and vocals A little history (for those who care): This set was the third of three that SCI played at their first (and only to date) Merlefest. It was played at about 5PM and was the last show on the Austin Stage for the day. Because of this, SCI was allowed to play pretty much as long as they wanted. Rather than an hour, they went for about 90 minutes with an encore. Unfortunately, the encore was not expected by the maker of this DSBD as the first 3 minutes or so are missing (and have been patched with the above mentioned source in Soundforge 4.5 using a nice crossfade). This DSBD surfaced a little while back. Merlefest is a notoriously non-taping festival, to the extent that when JonO extended a patch at the Main Stage on 4/27, festival authorities made him pull it back. Unfortunately, this one is not as nice as the Sam Bush set earlier in the day, presumably because of a lower quality board being used on this stage. A check of the waveforms shows that there is a fair amount of clipping, even though the levels are modest. Still, a good sounding recording. MUCH better than the audience recordings from this stage (as evidenced from the patched portion). The main reason for the disappointing audience tapes was the PA. For the first three tunes, the speaker stacks were covered with tarps to prevent them from getting soaked in the rain that had occured the better part of the day (and the night before). After a while, JonO and company actually climbed on ladders to remove the speakers, making the remainder of the show sound MUCH better. Luckily, this is not apparent on the DSBD (but is a fun tidbit of info to pass along :^). Enjoy! Jimbo
