- This is all there is for this night from this team.  There was an over zealous FOB bust & that was all she wrote.

Taper Notes:
This was the first and last time that I ever was present to record all four shows of the Grateful 
Dead NYE run, and the last time that I used my Sony TC-153SD cassette portable to master a show.
I still miss Brent terribly, but I thought that Bruce Hornsby did a great job adding color to the 
band with tunes like ‘Valley Road’, to close out the first set. I remember experimenting with 
different microphone set ups on that run. I think I ran a different combo for the first couple of 
nights, but for the cavernous Oakland Coliseum, I thought that two Nakamichi CM-300 shotguns 
sounded best from the tapers section.  It would be another eight years until I was able to upgrade
to Neumann microphones so at the time, my CM-300 x 3 set was the best I had available.  I still 
miss that trek to Oakland every December that we used to make to catch the New Years shows.  Man 
was it cold and windy!  Every time I hear Traffic’s ‘Rock And Roll Stew’, I think of tearing down 
my recording equipment after a Dead show in Oakland.  Healy used to play that song for the house 
music after the show.
