Archers of Loaf-First Avenue, Fargo ND 8/21/96 Xfer f/1st gen soundboard tape complete Eric Bachmann

I just finished digitizing and rebalancing today’s on this date in history.
I had the venue one marked as First Avenue, Minneapolis which made no sense. There were very few boards coming out of that venue and a 1st gen? How? Who did I get it from?
Thanks to Dan Johnson and newspapers dot com, it was actually the venue of the same name in Fargo. Now it made sense- it’s a Steve Hanson (RIP) tape!
There was no bass in the mix so I bumped it up in Izotope. Also pushed the guitar a little as well.

Ladies and Gentlemen, the next big thing.

Archers of Loaf- Black Cat, Washington DC 7/26/96 xfer from DAT Soundboard Clone Eric bachmann

I need to make this quick- I didn’t realize I had to be somewhere this early. Here is one that my friend Marcus Winfree taped for today’s On This Date in History. The snare was overpowering the mix so I rebalanced everything else to make it sound better. Oddly there is no documentation of this show so you get a generic tour shirt image.
