Taper's Notes:
I used a Sony Stereo Walkman and 2 TDK SA-X90 minute tapes ("Just get that other one ready!"). My Ticket stub is in the artwork, and doggone it, I don't remember if it was Meek that did the artwork it or Steve S. but whomsoever did do it please step up and stick your name in here!!

The tape was ripped using a Sony Cassette deck (component) with Dolby off and High Bias position on. I boosted the bass range from 20hZ to about 500hZ by about 8dB.. Probably not enough but if anyone wants more they can add it to their copy. The High end is natural, i didn't tweak anything but bass.

Furthermore:
I used to hang and meet bands at the Columbia Inn. I met Phil, Mike, and Tony for the first time in 78. I missed them in 80 and 81, but caught up with them again in 82. I took my mom's crummy 110 camera to go meet and greet the boys. I caught up with everybody including the 2 rags they had with them and got my copy of 3SL signed. Phil posed for a picture with me. His then girlfriend (future 2nd wife - forget her name) snapped the foto. I'll try to dig it up and include it in this set...

Anyway, Phil was sort of walking around in a panic. I asked the front desk what was going on and they said Phil had lost his luggage. You could tell he was rather non-plussed about it. Later that evening at the show his banter (at least to me) seemed to reflect his mood regarding the luggage - especially when he speaks right before DODO... "There's going to be a lot of shit flying tonight!"
About a week later, I heard Phil do a promo spot for the local radio station, WIYY Baltimore, 98Rock: "Right, this is Phil Collins of Genesis here and you're listening to WIYY Baltimore, 98 Rock... now where's my luggage?"
