    this show was posted with no info file at all several months
    ago and has apparently fallen off the tracker, even if it is
    still up there somewhere, I remastered this one, balancing the
    levels out and reducing any really loud claps between songs.
    I've made several of my KC auds sound more enjoyable this way,
    especially 84 ones, including this one. Thanks to the original
    seeder and taper of this show, one of several rather tasty 84
    KC auds I've DL'ed while on dime time, someone asked in the
    Boston 84 KC post if there were more 84 KC shows out there.
    Actually there's some very good 84 KC to be heard, and this is
    one of them. Sounded very fine before, maybe even better now.
    this does sound to me like a full show, about 105 minutes
    with several places suitable for a disc break, so I'm leaving
    it as I got it in one lump sum. This has 2 songs they left out
    of the Boston 84 show, Man with an Open Heart and one of my
    faves of this band, the Sheltering Sky. the "pass' and "ticket stub"
    are included from the original posting. No EQ. or noise reduction
    was done, (except what I call ICPVR- individual clap peak volume
    reduction, which reduces only sections of less than .005 of a second,
    mostly done between songs to make the applause sound more bearable
    without adding a sudden overall drop to the volume of the recording.
