My friend Dennis did the post production on my Arlo recording from Cuesta College, 10/23/98. I think it sounds a lot better. He was able to tame the loud crowd applause between songs and flatten out the frequency response.

OldNeumanntapr Notes-
The Cuesta College Auditorium was a neat old shoebox-type theater, built back during WWII on the old Cuesta campus which was part of the the Camp San Luis California National Guard army base. (The New campus, built in the early 70s fronts Highway 1, the Pacific Coast Highway.) The auditorium looked like hell, with peeling paint and a leaky roof with a water-stained ceiling, but had really nice acoustics. Alas, it was deemed not worthy to retro-fit for earthquake standards, so it is slowing decaying and has been boarded up and condemned since the middle 2000s. It was sad, because Arlo remarked during the show how wonderful the sound was in the old theater. He said that they had played some brand new houses that didn’t sound half as good, and he implored the audience to try and preserve the old building. Sadly, that didn’t happen. I have recorded at the old auditorium a lot, and made my first recording there in the late 1980s when I was working part time for the Cuesta College Music Department while I was going to school. I gave a patch to my friend TaprRon at this Arlo show and he laughed, because it was the first time he’d gotten a patch at a stealth show! I got my ticket signed at this show, and My ex wife Nikki and I brought our daughter Lucy to see Arlo play. She was seven years old, and the last time that we saw Arlo Nikki was pregnant with Lucy.
