Cracker- Petaluma Music Festival 7/26/25 4K UHD Master w/Schoeps audio Partial set

First off, if you all can do me a favor and NOT post this over on the Cracker crumbs facebook group, I would appreciate it. I got plonked by David on Sunday and was asked to not post there, so let’s play it safe and keep my stuff off of there completely. Yikes. Between that and Morst’s issues at The Fillmore, it seems that the ol’ “taper freindly” label is starting to peel off. haha.

So this is the first of 2 that I am posting from last week’s voter’s choice. It took me over 3 HOURS to get to this fest from home. It’s about 100 miles. I thought I left in time to make it to see Cracker, but there was SO much traffic. So that’s why you see this one cut in and get filmed through the soundboard tent. I had to turn the camera off a couple times to get settings dialed in. It’s amazing it turned out as good as it did, given the circumstances. The CVB set is way better.

Camper van Beethoven- Petaluma Music Festival 7/26/25 4K UHD Master w/Schoeps audio Complete set

TLDR version: Forward to 10 minutes in if you want to skip the soundcheck/mic check banter.

I have to admit, I got a little emotional toward the end of this set- I kinda lost it during All Her Favorite Fruit. The band has been hinting that this run of 40th anniversary shows will likely be the final CVB shows ever. There was no way I could make Campout and I can’t get the Washington DC at this time, so this show was it. It’s been an awesome 36 year run of me taping the band. That’s why you see 10 minutes of them prepping at the beginning of the show. I was going to edit it out, but there is enough good stuff in there to include it. Soak it all in.

It’s also really cool that my best CVB recording is likely the last one I’ll ever do. Kudos to the soundman- amazing sound for the entire set.

Ozomatli- Petaluma Music Festival 7/26/25 Schoeps Audience Complete Set

LATE collections post tonight. It’s from my collection, so no harm done, haha.
Ozomatli played in between Cracker and Camper van Beethoven at the fest. I was going to go sit and rest my old man bones, but Anonymous asked me to audiotape. I’m glad I did, because it sounds pretty damned good. I was also right next to the off-stage/audience drum jam at the end of the set, so you get a good sampling of that too.
