## Notes

{{:wip.png?nolink}}  **Whoa!**  This section is incomplete for now, sorry! {{:wip.png?nolink}}

Strangely, the free mp3 download posted to [LiveDownloads](http://www.livedownloads.com/live-music/0,13638/Steve-Kimock-mp3-flac-download-12-5-2015-The-Fillmore-San-Francisco-CA.html) omits the initial jam, and inserts a tune into the middle of the set. I'm mystified as to how I might have missed one ... perhaps this is a bit of studio magic to incorporate something from the soundcheck?
