Remaster request page
I won't be able to satisfy all requests of course, but I'll look for multiple requests to help decide. Only limiting factor is whether I have a lossless copy of the show (I have probably 80% of all shows). If the only source I have of a particular show is in rough quality, I will do what I can to improve it and will give a little disclaimer that it might not be quite up to snuff compared w/ the other remasters of my choosing.
For reference, you can reach this page quickly in the future by clicking on the "request page" tab in the upper right-hand column of the home page. Thanks!
p.s. - I'm sure to the dismay of the '99 haters and those hoping for a little more variety in terms of years, I will be shortly uploading a couple remaster requests I've gotten recently: 9.22.99 Las Cruces and 9.29.99 Memphis. I swear, after those I will take a break from '99 as well as a brief hold on the "Roof-less Shed Series" and post a show from each of the following years: '97, '96, '95, and so on going backwards. So you might have the quickest luck with requests from those years, hint hint...

Hi - really been digging the remasters you've been doing. I've got a couple in mind that are great shows that seem to be lacking a great recording... 12/11/99, 11/7/96, 9/17/00, 11/12/94, 6/17/94... I'm sure I can think of a few more but that's plenty to throw at you for now. Good luck wading through all the request and keep up the good work! Cheers.

First off let me just say thanks for remastering Tucson 99. You're right it was so awesome to be at such a random and remote show. For my request(s) I'm going to throw out a handful of shows. Much thanks for all of your hard work and dedication to this awesome thing we call PHiSH Oh and forgive me if these have already been remastered by someone else on PT, I haven't kept up with ALL of the remasters...
Ventura 97 & 98
Desert Sky 97 (my phirst)
Great Woods 99
Gorge 98
Shoreline 98 & 97 ok I guess thats enough...
- February 20, 2010 at 11:41 AM
i know you're almost done with 99... but shoreline 99 is another to consider... phil and warren sickness
- February 20, 2010 at 12:16 PM
I know you have done many 99's but please consider 9-11-99, second set wolfmans>sand is one of the best things ever played by the boys. Good to here you doing the 9-29-99!!!
- February 20, 2010 at 10:15 PM
12/28/98 for sure.
- February 21, 2010 at 12:04 PM
I'd love to have a nice sounding copy of 11/23/97. Best show I've seen and there is no really good sounding source for it. I'm happy to provide flacs if needed.
- February 21, 2010 at 8:19 PM
And maybe 9/14/00

re: 12/28/98
a remaster already exists: http://www.megaupload.com/?d=RCQG9YQG. I can't speak to the quality as I've never heard it. I briefly tried messing around with that show the other day but it might not be a good one to remaster. There's something hard to describe about the recording that I was having a tough time "fixing". We'll see though.
Lincoln - I like the variety of your requests. 11/7/96 and 9/17/00 are almost definites. 11/12/94 is another one like 12/28/98 - I tried but wasn't happy with the result. It has that boomy, gymnasium sound to it and I'm afraid that's really difficult to improve upon.
- February 25, 2010 at 5:13 PM
- Charlie said...
2nd to 11/23/97, really really want an upgrade to that one.
- February 25, 2010 at 5:40 PM
Hey buddy.. Great Job so far! Diggin it! Would really love to here a 02-26-1997 Longhorn, Stuttgart, Germany (remaster). Check it out. Super funky tube!
- February 25, 2010 at 11:55 PM
- Kenny Powers said...
02-26-1997 is a really good sounding AUD already! unless maybe you have a different recording? I have the Neumann km140 pull, etree source # 3171. Sounds fantastic!
I try not to remaster sources that I already think are great. If you have a lesser quality source for that show I'd be happy to upload the one I have.
- February 26, 2010 at 9:42 PM
how about Virgina Beach 8/9/98 and Great Woods 7/12 & 13/99?
thanks for sharing the remaster with the rest of us!

NO WAY - is your nickname seriously Thunder? That was mine for a while! After Thunder Dan Majerle of the Phoenix Suns.

- Todd levy said...
Okay, first off THANK YOU! These are great (at least to my ears).
Second, wondering if you've ever considered using Mediafire instead of Megaupload?
I like it because (a) it doesn't make you wait 45 seconds and (b) you can download multiple shows at once.
Not sure what the downsides are, if any, but just something for consideration.
Keep up the great work.
- March 1, 2010 at 4:53 PM
- Kenny Powers said...
Thanks for the kind words.
As for Mediafire I'm always open to trying something different, but is it true they limit files to 200 MB? That could be annoying, especially for the FLACs which can break the 1 GB mark. Also, would I be able to track how many times each file has been downloaded? That's a must for me.
Basically whatever works best for folks is cool with me, as long as it can do the same basic thing I've been doing. Maybe I'll give it a try with the next remaster.
- March 1, 2010 at 4:57 PM
- Charlie said...
Yeah, its a 200 MB limit for mediafire unless you subscribe, which I think is like $7 a month. You are able to track how many people have downloaded each show so that works out well for you. If it were me and I were considering using mediafire I'd only use it for the MP3's. Breaking FLAC versions into 5 parts or something seems like a lot of work on your end, and all the work is on your end. Thanks again
- March 1, 2010 at 5:48 PM
- Alex said...
First of all thanks for all your work on these remasters. I would also like to request 12/2/94 and 12/3/94. These are both fun shows and both have the cosmic country horns sitting in for the 2nd set. Also if you ever get a chance to do the Big Cypress soundcheck that would be great too.
- March 1, 2010 at 8:19 PM
These remasters are ridiculous! Thanks so much for sharing!
I've been looking for a better copy of 9/22/00 for the past 9+ years... still my favorite concert of all time and probably the worst sounding aud I've ever listened to. A remastered copy of this show would be a dream come true.
- March 1, 2010 at 9:14 PM
- Helping Friendly said...
KP, Want to say thanks for the response on my request on 02-26-97, and i agree, i used to have a dank copy of that show which must be the etree source 3171 but unfortunately no ones seeded it for awhile. You mentioned an upload on that which would be very kind cause i'm really missing that show. I'll keep checking back. Thanks dude
- March 2, 2010 at 1:40 AM
- Kenny Powers said...
here's a FLAC copy of 2.26.97. Note to others - this is not a remaster, but is a rediculously clear and in-your-face aud.
- March 2, 2010 at 10:42 AM
- Charlie said...
Is it ok for me to post that link other places? Such a good show, I was unaware that people couldn't get the sweet sounding version.
- March 2, 2010 at 11:06 AM
- Kenny Powers said...
most definitely OK to post that link anywhere!
- March 2, 2010 at 3:25 PM
- Kenny Powers said...
To the person that requested 9/22/00 above - I wish I could make your dream come true...unfortunately the only AUD i have of that show sounds terrible, like beyond the point of saving via remaster.
I'm on the lookout for other sources, and will definitely do that show if the source can be salvaged.
- March 8, 2010 at 10:49 AM
11.30.96 Arco Arena, Sacramento CA
(Ventura '97 is a great choice too)
- March 8, 2010 at 6:53 PM
12/29/96!! Most of the Spectrum shows I have are pretty weak.
- March 9, 2010 at 1:24 PM
Hello Again.. I was goin through some shows with great sounding potential.. How about 11-19-97 & 11-22-97? Thanks KP
- March 9, 2010 at 11:20 PM
I agree with Conrad on the 6/30/00 but I also think that 12/30/95 is a super important one, probably the best Hood these ears have ever heard. 12/29/96 would be cool too....
- March 10, 2010 at 10:19 AM
- Charlie said...
11/19/97 is a great choice. Hope it gets considered. Lovin these things, really adds a whole new dimension to the listening experience. More "feel" than a soundboard yet with all the clarity. These have become my new favorite recordings.
- March 10, 2010 at 10:19 PM
Great site, thanks!
11/11/98 Grand Rapids, plz.
- March 11, 2010 at 11:36 AM
- geometric-changing-shapes said...
I would be forever thankful if you could remaster 7-13-99. That first set is one of my all time favorites, and the second set is also very very solid. I know there are several other folks that would also love to see a cleaner copy available. If you are not familiar with the show check out this setlist!
Set 1: NICU, The Curtain, Halley's Comet -> Roses Are Free -> NO2!!!, Lawn Boy, Reba > Carini > Funky Bitch
Set 2: Wolfman's Brother > Piper, Bug, Mountains in the Mist, Run Like an Antelope > Possum
Encore: Tuesday's Gone
Notes: NO2 was played for the first time since July 16, 1994 (355 shows) and, for the first known time, included the instrumental ending originally included on The White Tape. Reba was unfinished and dissolved into Carini. Antelope included Meatstick teases and Trey acknowledging his friends Dave and Luann Abrahams, who were in the crowd. Scott Murawski joined the band on Possum and the Phish debut of Tuesday's Gone.
- March 14, 2010 at 11:33 AM
- Charlie said...
11/11/98 would be a great choice if you are looking to add some '98. Well, really 8/7/98 would be as well.
- March 15, 2010 at 7:34 PM
- Dave said...
I second the request for 6-28-00 and add a request for 7-4-00. I just have to hear that monster Jibboo in good quality at some point in my life!!!
I love '99 and '00 and it seems like many of the aud's from those years don't sound great, so keep the remasters coming, and thanks!!
- March 18, 2010 at 11:11 AM
- Lincoln said...
i've really been digging fall '96 lately... 10/29/96 needs the treatment. keep up the good work!
- March 21, 2010 at 3:58 PM
You should definitely do 11/19/97! Now that there's remasters of 11/21, 11/22, 11/23, and the LP sbd of 11/17, we'd have good sounding stuff from that whole week! I know you said your not doing '99 for a while but when you do get back to it: 7/25/99 or 7/13/99 would be great.
- March 21, 2010 at 7:56 PM

11-19-97 gets a vote from me for sure!!! as for others I would like to hear:
10-27-95 (great second set)
- March 23, 2010 at 12:49 PM
6-24-95 please?!?!
- March 24, 2010 at 8:51 PM
- Mike said...
hey man, great page, great work. thanks! was wondering if you could give the cinci shows from december 99 an overhaul. i just cannot find good sounding copies of these 2 shows and would love to hear them again, in a better sounding format. thanks!
- March 25, 2010 at 7:19 AM
I would love to hear the bozeman tweezer from 11/28/94. It seems to be hard to find. thank you
- March 25, 2010 at 11:03 AM
- Charlie said...
7/10/97 would be great as well, such a fun show.
- March 25, 2010 at 11:39 PM
How about some cool one-off/side project stuff?
SerialPod 12/17/05
- March 27, 2010 at 11:32 PM
the 9/17/00 sounds amazing! what a tight and focused era for the band. the jamming is so tight and sick i love it. I say more remasters from summer and phall 2000... still hoping for a remaster of 6/30/00 <><
- March 28, 2010 at 1:51 PM
- Kenny Powers said...
I give you points for originality on the side-project request, but I'm gonna keep this a Phish-only blog...sorry!
I am now working on 11.19.97.
And because I've gotten a bunch of requests for 6/28, 29, and 30 I think I'm just gonna do the whole Holmdel > Hartford 2000 run as a single blog post. Just gotta make sure the sources I have for each show are remaster material...
- March 29, 2010 at 9:07 AM
- Craig said...
Really? No one has requested Philly '97? There's not a decent copy out there! Thanks - 11/19/97 (along with all your other work) sounds fantastic.
- April 5, 2010 at 10:53 AM
Seconding both nights of Philly '97. Two great shows (and completely different: night 1 = smokin', night 2 = superfunk), but zero good recordings.
Thanks for all of your work!
- April 5, 2010 at 11:09 AM
sweet! stoked to check out the 11/19/97. i've really been digging on all these remastered auds lately. also way stoked that you're considering doing the HOLMDEL > HARTFORD 2000 run... thanks again my friend
- April 5, 2010 at 11:43 AM
Any chance we can get a Remaster for 11/19/96 Kansas City?? Great show that could use a little boost.
That and the 8/6/97 St. Louis show....
Thanks again!!
- April 5, 2010 at 12:31 PM
9-14-99 would be great! it already has a good AUD, but with some remastering, it would be unreal.
- April 5, 2010 at 4:01 PM
- Charlie said...
I have a couple of requests to throw out, lovin this 11/19/97 right now. As has been stated 9/14/99 would be an excellent choice. As for a "lesser known" show, how about 7/21/97? Or maybe 8/7/98?
- April 9, 2010 at 7:55 PM
- Frank said...
Hey! How about 7/11/00? Show has always been muddy for me and the bass can be overpowering. Thanks!
- April 16, 2010 at 10:38 AM
- smellegood said...
thank you so much for putting the time in to do this. these are the first wonderful sounding shows i've ever had. how about a horn show?
- April 17, 2010 at 2:49 AM
- Andrew said...
Thanks for all the work you've been doing, I was so pumped when I saw the 12/11/99 remaster...one of the most fun shows I've ever been at, but never have a good recording.
As I was reading the first few paragraphs of your status update, I thought to myself "I would really love to get a remaster of 6/30/00" and then I see that it's been requested multiple times. You read my mind!
- April 17, 2010 at 6:13 PM
- Joshu88 said...
here are a few more that I feel should be considered. sorry if they have been mentioned.
7-20-99, 7-6-00 unique shows in Toronto, and I have never heard a source do either of them justice.
7-29-98, just a perfect rippin 2nd set, muddy sources.
12-6-97, just because!
9-18-00 - 9/24/00 this is a great bunch of shows leading into the last leg.

- April 18, 2010 at 12:18 AM
- Kenny Powers said...
thanks for the requests Josh! just to clarify, it's OK to request shows that others have requested. i'm just asking folks not to request shows they've already requested before. but it's totally fine to say "i second the request for --/--/---", or whatever.
thanks for the ideas!
- April 18, 2010 at 9:10 AM
- Kenny Powers said...
also Josh - have you heard this existing remaster of 12/6/97?
it's from a batch of remasters that surfaced on Mr.Miner's site last year. sounds pretty darn good. not sure i could do any better!
- April 18, 2010 at 9:19 AM
- saj said...
i think more people would put 12/3/97 in the upper echelon of fall 97 shows if the tapes sounded better. seen a couple other comments mentioning this show.
- April 19, 2010 at 10:46 AM
8/6/97 Riverport Amp, St. Louis

I love all your remasters. Here are some shows you should consider remastering: 9/14/99, 7/25/99, 12/16/95, 12/17/95, 11/30/96, 7/11/00, and 11/22/94. Please remaster 9/14/99!!! It's my favorite show ever.
- April 26, 2010 at 7:42 PM
- Harry Hood said...
What about 11.29.97? It has the longest "Jim" and looks enticing. I don't see a lot of 97 shows and thought this would be a good one.
- April 27, 2010 at 2:09 PM
11-19-96 Kansas City!

- May 3, 2010 at 12:33 PM
- MC said...
6/28/00 PLEASE!!! (No explanation needed)
One of the most underrated shows of 99. Incredible YEM, and an unreal 2nd set.
- May 3, 2010 at 2:10 PM
First off, a million thanks for all your work on these shows. May good karma be yours. I have 2 requests: 6/28/00 ('nuff said, as mentioned by someone else) + 5/22/00 (love this show, especially Ghost).
- May 4, 2010 at 9:28 PM

Camden shows from summer 2000, 7/3 and 7/4. Great long jams of Jibbo and Jim to open both sets each night

- sage234 said...
Wow. These remasters are awesome. Thank you!
I saw almost 40 shows between 1993 and 1997, and decided after last year to see them again this year for Phish 3.1. As a request, the last two shows I saw were 11/21/97 and 11/22/97 -- one of the highlights of all my concert going experiences for sure. I have 6 sources for each show, and I think the AKG461 sources are the best for each night. A remaster of those would be awesome!
Thanks again.
- May 9, 2010 at 4:08 PM
- Kenny Powers said...
hey Sage - those shows have already been remastered by someone else. Here are the links (only mp3s were made):
Phish 11.21.97 Hampton Coliseum, Hampton, VA (RMSTR)
Phish 11.22.97 Hampton Coliseum, Hampton, VA (RMSTR)
- May 9, 2010 at 4:30 PM
Love all these remasters!
PLease do 7-21-97 Virginia Beach Ampitheatre.
This show smokes!!!!
- May 14, 2010 at 3:13 AM
7/23/97 - no brainer. decent quality aud which deserves the next level.
And two big ATL shows coming up so it lends nicely to a blog write-up and good feedback
- May 19, 2010 at 11:04 PM
- Kenny Powers said...
Hey y'all
i just wanted to drop a line to mention a few of your requests that i've looked into but decided not to do because the existing AUDs are really good...i'll list the etree source #'s in case you just haven't heard any of these sources, which i could upload for you. refer to db.etree.org to figure out the taper info for each #:
1998-11-11 31242
1997-07-10 2669
1997-12-02 and 03 : i'm perplexed about the comment of there being no good sources for these shows. I have one source for 12/2/97 (7984) and it sounds really nice. I have two sources for 12/3/97 (8572 and 89656) which sound very different but are great in their own ways. One of them's a bit bass-heavy but still nice, and the other is just about perfect.
Fall '97 in general has, for some reason, better sounding AUDs IMO than most other late '90s/'00 AUDs.
ok that's it for now, just went through the comments up to April 5 at 11:09...
- May 22, 2010 at 5:42 PM

digging the remasters. how bout some more fall '96 - specifically 10/25, 10/29, and 11/30... cheers!
- May 23, 2010 at 9:19 AM
Roof-Less Shed that needs major remastering is 6/23/95 Waterloo Village, NJ
All the sources out there suck pretty bad!
- May 23, 2010 at 11:43 AM
this is a great show and i have not found a clean recording yet. dwd----->free.
that is all
- May 31, 2010 at 10:10 AM

digs - 7/11/00 moby dick. Talk about a show that needs to be cleaned up in the low end!
- June 3, 2010 at 5:34 PM
- Ryan said...
I vote for
6/18/94 (this is supposedly a "SBD" but doesn't seem like it at all, it's all pitchy)
- June 4, 2010 at 11:26 AM
I have two different lossless sources for 3-13-93.
One from Kevin Shapiro the other off of etree. can't recal notes but one may be SBD the other AUD.
I could drop the files on a DVD and post them to you.
Post tour it would be neat to get this one done.
- June 25, 2010 at 6:49 PM
- Kenny Powers said...
Hey Berkerker,
i was surprised to find that although i have 90% of that spring '93 tour, i do not have 3/13. could you email me (or upload if you have a Mediafire/Megaupload account) one track from the AUD so i can see whether it's remaster potential? Perhaps a longer track that has quiet and louder moments?
- June 26, 2010 at 12:44 PM
- geometric-changing-shapes said...
The remastering of 7-13-99 and 12-11-99 sounds awesome and thanks so much for doing this. I do have a request to make. Unfort. a lot of 99 AUDS sound like Sh*t.
I think it would benefit the community greatly to remaster
7-15-99 SOAM > Kung > Jam is a must hear!
7-23-99 remember the Ghost -> Free > BoaF from this show and how the band was exchanging energy with the storm that night!?
last request
Thanks a lot for all you have done!
- July 2, 2010 at 2:13 PM
- Charlie said...
How about 7/21/98? What a second set, best Ghost out there IMO.
- July 11, 2010 at 11:18 AM
- Kenny Powers said...
Also, for anyone wondering about 6/30/00 and the other Holmdel/Hartford shows I kept saying I would remaster...
another fellow who goes by "JetiMindTrick" recently beat me to the punch and remastered that whole 4-show run.
You can find them on PT as well as Demonoid...if folks check those out and decide they really don't like them, I could give them a shot but I typically try to avoid to doing remasters of shows people have already done.
Maybe my gut feeling that remastering most of those sources would result in an even worse-sounding AUD ended up being good predictions :(
Thanks for the requests, keep them coming, i haven't forgotten about you...but to be totally honest I'm trying to be a wee bit less obsessive with the blog for a while so I can catch up on the MOUNTAIN of shows i've been grabbing from various trackers.
- July 15, 2010 at 7:55 AM
Thanks for all of your hard work on these, love the sound of everything I've downloaded. I would just like to put in a plug for 8-10-97, as that show deserves another version. There are some really special versions of songs in that show, specifically the Gin, SOAM, and Hood in the first set. The second set speaks for itself and would benefit greatly from your treatment. Thanks again, take care.....
- July 17, 2010 at 4:18 PM
Worcester 97 please! 11/29 is one of the great second sets, and I've never heard a decent source of it.
11/30/97 would also be more than appreciated.
- July 19, 2010 at 11:26 AM
12/16/99 Raleigh, NC
Aside from Big Cypress, this is easily my favorite December '99 show, and possible favorite non-BC '99 show period.
Best ever Sand, top tier Tweezer, Mango, Camel Walk, and all around fantastic playing during a tough-ticket-tiny-arena show.
Only problem? Haven't once heard a source that was even remotely listenable. Please, KP, work your magic!
Once more, please and thank you, 12/16/99 Raleigh, NC

Great work KP! If you could remaster 12-2-99 I'd really appreciate it. My copy is ehhh. Great Gin, 2001, and one of the most interesting YEMs (and my favorite) around. Keep up the good work!

Whats good KP? I haven't been here in awhile but stoked to see your still producing quality hits.. Can you consider a remaster on 11-02-98 or point me in the right direction on the best source? I really hope we'll get a SBD to pop up one day. Its been long enough. We need a quality Dark Side of the Moon source!! If anyone knows of a SBD let me know.Thanks Kiid..
11-02-98 !!!

best i've heard is the 2-mic AUD mix. commonly labeled as a matrix but it's not a SBD/AUD matrix....
still isn't great but is the best we have i think. not sure how much i can do to it but i'll put it on the list!

Sticking with the Hartford theme, I request 11/26/97. Incredible opening Tweezer, and a super rare giant jammed-out version of Character Zero. One of my all-time fav shows!

- Dan Charles said...
I know others have already mentioned this show, but I thought I'd mention it too...
9-13-1990 The Wetlands Preserve, NYC
Self, Dahlia, and Revolution's Over (all Phish concert debuts) featured the Dude of Life on vocals. This show also featured the first performances of Tube, The Asse Festival, Buried Alive, Magilla and Stash. Plus... a rare Lizards encore.
- August 25, 2010 at 7:12 AM
yo love what you're doin for us real Phish fans out there who need to here the best shit in prime sound and are sick of all the new shows being released with no archives. With that being said, I only have one request which I hope you will come around to some time. I've heard every antelope from the 90's but never heard one quite like this. The ghost, YEM, and Jim are also sick. Thanks again, and please take this one seriously. its for real, and the current aud sucks ass
Maryland Heights, 1997.08.06
- August 29, 2010 at 9:18 PM
Thanks so much for all the great shows you have worked on so far! I love them all and they have become my go to shows for months. I would love to see 11/22/97. Or more from 94-95. Thanks again and keep it up!
- September 3, 2010 at 12:16 PM
- Kenny Powers said...
re: 11/22/97, there is an awesome remaster already in existence, done by Paul Shapera. it's on the remasters page of The Spreadhseet.
- September 3, 2010 at 12:32 PM
- charlie said...
We getting anything new soon? I love all of these, they are my personal favorites. For a request here are a couple: 6/22/00 or my favorite non remastered non official release: 7/21/98.

Hey Kenny,
I am looking for copies of the Island Tour DVD's you were speaking of on BB the other day. Let me know what i would need to do in order to secure these gems... Thanks
- January 15, 2011 at 9:38 AM
thank you so much!
roofless shed project #3 (please)
Bonner Springs, KS
7-28-98, 6-30-99 and 9-25-00
very much appreciated

- Kenny Powers said...
Two of those Bonner Springs shows have been remastered by others...see The Spreadsheet.
- January 23, 2011 at 10:40 AM
Hi and thanks...
I was going to mention that I've long been disappointed with the '99 Bonner Remaster. You'll notice upon listening an annoying constant background noise the entire show! An almost percussive sound that I once believed was someone slapping a plastic seat back within the tapers' section; But lately, I've realized it could be a pick-up from Trey's guitar;...thoughts?
Please help!
Kudos to phishjam10 and to Paul for recognizing two phenomenal shows (Kevin Shapiro...telephone, please)
- January 26, 2011 at 10:22 PM
- Kenny Powers said...
hm, that's odd...i can't say i've listened to more than a few seconds of that remaster so when i get a chance i will take a listen to see if the source i have has the same issue.
again, i may be taking a bit of a break from remasters but i always welcome the suggestions :)
- January 27, 2011 at 9:26 AM
One more "Request" if you will, please...
Would it be possible to Remaster the fanstic 9/29/00 specifically to omit the non-band-member(dealer)vocalist- (i.e. second set, encore)- leaving only stellar Phish and a drop-kick setlist?
(just a dream I had)
thanks for checkin' on the Springs, let me know if you can.
- January 28, 2011 at 1:39 AM
This may have been asked for but, is there a SBD for 8-1-98? I would love to hear this. Also, thank you for everything you have done. I have gotten some gems over the last year.
- February 6, 2011 at 12:15 PM
- JDUB said...
Kenny- you got to help me out. im at my wits end. been trying to find a good, clear tape of 7.31.1997 Shoreline Amp. The whole show was sick, and of course, I happened to be there. the runaway jim but especially the page laden YEM jam must be heard. could you direct me to the best one in your estimation out there? , or consider it as a project?- I have slowly started to educate myself to the taper lexicon, and tell me how i might obtain it
- March 1, 2011 at 2:03 AM
- Matt said...
Hey man. First of all, I definitely appreciate all the dope remasters you've done. I really dig the Boise '99, as well as the Champaign '97. Well done, bro!
I gotta ask one question though...where's the '95 dood? Such a great, great year (especially Fall -> New Years) I know that the entire month of December has been remastered on the spreadsheet, but I really dig alot of the Oct./Nov. shows just as much! Also, Ive noticed most AUD recordings Ive heard sound very cavernous.
I'd like to throw out a few different shows that I think would make good candidates:
10/7 - Amazing Hood
10/11 - Entire 2nd set is money!
10/29 - Solid all around playing.
11/30 - 2nd set Tweezer -> Makisupa -> Antelope is hot!
So those are my requests. Any of these shows would be fine by me. I just think you should "diversify" your catalog a little bit. Awesome job man. Keep up the good work!
- March 2, 2011 at 6:26 PM
- Kenny Powers said...
Matt - thanks for the requests, and i agree - fall '95 is sick. I'll look into the ones you suggested. As for the "cavernous" comment, i agree with that and it's one of the main reason i haven't remastered more from that tour. There's not much you can fix about a boomy recording. A bassy recording that's otherwise good is an easy EQ fix, but that cavernous aspect of some AUDs can't really be undone. But I will look into it.
- March 2, 2011 at 9:14 PM
- Kenny Powers said...
also - there is a great sounding AUD of the Louisville Gardens show 10/29/95. i've compared three differenct sources, and thw following sounds awesome and wouldn't be helped much by a remaster:
AKG 460b, shnid # 86812
- March 2, 2011 at 9:33 PM
- JDUB said...
Kenny- I dont mean to press, but I would love to hear your rebaked rest of that show 7.31.97 the jim, vultures, ya mar and mcgrupp are masterful
whenever you get to it signed patiently waiting
- March 3, 2011 at 12:59 AM
- Kenny Powers said...
patience, young Padawan.
you can't force open the petals of a flower. (what movie is that from? without Googling...)
nah, but seriously i'm just about done...i need to finish QC'ing the remaster for any glaring issues, then i need to upload the files and do the blog write-up. expect it by Friday night.
FYI i deleted most of our conversation above because this page is getting super long and i want to try to limit it to requests and quick replies instead of convos. i should've said to email me for the duration of our research. anyhoo.
- March 3, 2011 at 3:22 PM
- ACBOSTON said...
Hey Kenny. Writing to request a remastered copy of 12/28/1997 US Air Arena. It was one of my first shows, and its a heater. I really love Trey's tone in late 97-holiday run 97, and it holds up on this show. The spreadsheet copy is average, but I feel with a little bit of tweaking it could sounds amazing. Thank you for all of your hard work.
- March 4, 2011 at 9:42 AM
- John said...
First, thanks for all your work - these remasters are great. To second a request from above, 12/16/99 is a great show with an amazing sand and tweezer, and all the copies I have ever heard are close to unlistenable.
- March 5, 2011 at 11:23 PM
- charlie said...
7/21/98, amazing show top to bottom, killer ghost that deserves to be in the best ever conversation.
- March 15, 2011 at 10:36 PM
First off I want to say thank you for all your work and your site. Hearing these shows in this new quality is such a gift. My humble request is for 11/29/98 Worcester, MA, my first show. Obviously there is the official LP release of the 11/27 show, but to have a top notch version of 11/29 would be phenomenal. Cheers.
- March 21, 2011 at 7:50 PM
What an amazing effort. Thanks for all the hard work. I'll take a strong AUD over a SBD anyday, but that's me.
Two of my all-time favorites circulate in fairly poor quality. Any chance at getting remasters of 8/9/98 or 4/4/94?
The '98 Va Beach show is a bit surprising since you'd think the Terrapin encore would make it an obvious classic - but that show was sensational well before the encore. As for 4/4/94 - terribly underrated show feat. horns and the debut of several Hoist tunes. Thanks again!!
- March 31, 2011 at 2:16 PM
- Kenny Powers said...
there's a pretty damn tasty remaster of 8/9/98 by phishjam10, which is on the spreadsheet in v0 mp3. i know he has the FLACs too but that page seems to be inactive now. the terrapin encore also circulates in pristine SBD as filler on the 8/8/98 SBD which is on etree.
4/4/94 set II is available in SBD, so naturally i wouldn't choose to remaster that.
good thoughts though, keep em comin! and to all who have posted requests, thank you and don't think i've ingnored them. i sample all the sources i have of requested shows, and if i don't remaster it it almost always means the sources i have are not remaster material. i'm always trying to track down more and more sources...
- March 31, 2011 at 2:40 PM
Love this site and what you do. I would love to see a remaster of
08-07-1998 Raleigh, NC show. my copy of the show is terrible in comparison to others.
- April 3, 2011 at 11:56 AM
- Kenny Powers said...
since much of 8/7/98 has been leaked in SBD, i would probably not consider that. but yeah, damn good show!
- April 3, 2011 at 12:52 PM
- Mike said...
How about 8.9.97? The Smoking first set and Mike's into Everything needs a good tweaking. Also Deer Creek 98 would be solid.
How about the OJ show too?
- April 7, 2011 at 5:40 PM
- Mike said...
So to bring the loop theme in, how about a string.of the best loop shows in your memory. Kind of hard to pinpoint, but you know they are circa 99-2000. I cannot recall of 12.3.99 in Cindy was loop or just sonic waves heavy. Bit that would be a great show to get a polished copy of as well.
6.10.2000 has a mesmerizing Sand. I think someone else mentioned 9.11.99, and I think that had a really tripped out loop fest.
- April 7, 2011 at 7:31 PM
- charlie said...
Where oh where might I find that leaked 8/7/98 show?
- April 10, 2011 at 10:50 PM
- charlie said...
Also, my personal favorite of '99, 12/2 would be cool
- April 10, 2011 at 10:53 PM
- Jon Kussmaul said...
In honor of this summer's Chicago run, how about an upgrade to the three nights of UIC in '98? Those 3 are sa sa sa smokin'!
Thanks a million for all of your work.
- April 14, 2011 at 3:31 PM
- Aaron said...
Would you PLEASE, PLEASE, PLEASE remaster 9/29/00! I was was at those shows and IMO 9/29/00 and 9/30/00 were the last REAL Phish shows! 9/29/00 is just FULL of energy....as was the entire arena!
The only sources don't come close to doing 9/29 justice.
- April 20, 2011 at 2:20 PM
- charlie said...
Saw the comment about those chicago '98 shows and broke out 11/11. Wow what a show, but it already sounds phenomenal. That got me thinking, have you come across any other shows while doing the remaster thing that you don't think need work or sound exceptionally good, like one of your remasters? If so could you post them here?
- April 20, 2011 at 8:18 PM
- Kenny Powers said...
that's a good question. yes i do come across AUDs that i feel i really can't do much to improve, and that 11/11/98 Grand Rapids show is one of them. Actually, the thing with that AUD is that not only does it sound really good, it has a crisper than usual high end with controlled bass, which is a combination i believe the average listener prefers.
the "prototype" recordings i end up using are such that they have a nice beefy low end, perhaps too beefy, and the high end is a bit muffled and soft, making the subtleties hard to fully appreciate.
and lastly, the majority of AUDs i sample and contemplate for remasters end up not being done because they sound suboptimal in the kinds of ways that any EQ job or other remastering cannot save. this could be due to reasons like a really boomy room with bad acoustics, a poorly placed tapers' section or FOB stealth location, as well as myriad other possible reasons. i feel bad when people say "this or that AUD blows and really needs an upgrade", because most likely AUDs like that cannot be always be turned into better listening experience by "remastering" my way. you can polish a turd, but it's still a turd.
- April 20, 2011 at 9:05 PM
- Kenny Powers said...
oh yeah, and to respond to your request - perhaps i will have a separate thread/page where i can post source numbers that i feel are really high quality and not in much if any need of an EQ or left-right channel adjustment, or level-raising.
- April 20, 2011 at 9:06 PM
I've always loved 12/7/99 Portland, ME. I would love to hear you work your magic on it (or 12/8 for that matter). Thanks.
- May 7, 2011 at 1:40 PM
- Jeremy said...
I emailed about this a while ago and am now officially requesting 07/25/99.
Thanks so much, appreciate your efforts!
- June 30, 2011 at 9:46 AM
I am combing through alot of the remasters, and 95 has a good December representation. But how about the sublime 11.30.95 show?
That show is butter!
- August 9, 2011 at 1:34 PM
Oh man, thank you so much dude!!! I can't believe theres remasters of 12/11/99, 12/31/98, and Cypress. I can't wait to check those out, the auds I've always had were clear but always had a really boomy unpleasant bass response.
Theres 2 shows that immediately come to mind that I think deserve your touch... 11/11/98 and 12/16/99. The main problem is that when I CRANK the volume for the legendary 11/11/98 Ghost and 12/16/99 Tweezer, the bass response overwhelms the rest of the band and hinders the magic.
I must also throw out 12/7/99 for that Halley's....
but oh man, now that I know theres a possibly perfect sounding 12/31/99 TWIST jam, AHHH!!! Those 2 notes Mike plays in the jam.... absolute glorious purity.
- August 19, 2011 at 12:37 PM
- Kenny Powers said...
don't get your hopes up for the 12/31/98 remaster....one of my earliest efforts and i chose a pretty boomy and chatty source. but hopefully an improvement nonetheless. i'm pretty happy w/ those other two :)
as far as 11/11/98, as i told another person who requested it, that is one of the best sounding AUDs from that tour that i've heard, and i don't really see how i can improve it much. i'll try to look into the other two you mentioned.
i haven't been doing remasters lately for a couple reasons, so i may be slow to react. but thanks for the interest.
- August 19, 2011 at 12:45 PM
- Hank said...
4-8-94 Penn State
Best It's Ice Ever! I have never heard them before, or since, jam it out like they did that night.
Have a listen to just the middle jam part...stars out a little mellow, catches a groove....
Split Open to poen second set is also stellar.
- August 26, 2011 at 6:44 PM
Hey man, just wanted to say that I love your site. The 07/31/97 remaster is one of my favorite Phish recordings I've ever heard. There are honestly two shows that I will absolutely beg you to remaster the AUD's from. 11/12/94 and 06/11/94. I know people will laugh me out of the building for recommending 06/11/94, but I just think the FM SBD is really harsh and just... not good sounding. The AUD is boomy, but I feel like with some touch you could make it an epic recording like your 07/31/97. It's my favorite Phish show. PLEASE HELP!
- October 24, 2011 at 8:58 PM
- Jesse - link is here said...
Thanks for your work. I am getting "The file you are trying to access is temporarily unavailable" at megaupload for part 2 of your leaked SBDs project.
- October 28, 2011 at 7:10 AM
Love the job you are doing with these remasters. How about a remaster of 11.19.96 Kansas City??
Such a great show!
- October 30, 2011 at 4:03 PM
So, your leaked SBD project is fantastic. Question, though -- why didn't you include all of the "From the Archives" shows? I know that Superball, at least, is not represented, and it looks like others are missing as well....
- November 2, 2011 at 2:18 PM
- Kenny Powers said...
The Superball FTA is included in the Tier 2 compilation. Please see the main blog post for the SBD project for details as to why some FTAs are not in either project (long story short, some are just too shitty sounding).
Thx for your interest!
- November 2, 2011 at 2:20 PM
Hey Kenny, thanks for all these remasters. A few of them are always in my rotation. The 9/17/00 remaster is the best sounding aud I've ever heard!
7/25/99 needs your magic touch! That whole show from start to finish is A+. Hook it up!
- November 14, 2011 at 10:29 PM
Hey man, I love your 1999 remasters. That year never gets enough love. Is 09/14/99 not one of the best shows of all time? I was wondering if you would not mind remastering 11/12/94. It is considered by many, including myself, to be the peak show of a peak month in Phish's history that never gets enough love. Yeah, there are those crappy SBD's Phish has sparingly released, but it really needs your touch for the whole show. If not that show, how about 11/23/94, another great show from that year. 08/14/97 is another classic in need of some help. Honestly, a 06/11/94 AUD remaster would be great as well. Thanks for the shows man!
- November 23, 2011 at 12:21 AM
- Kenny Powers said...
as far as 11/12/94, i've already looked into remastering the only AUD source available but I really couldn't do it any justice. it has that boomy college gym sound, and no amount of tweaking improved it IMO. we'll just have to hope Shapiro unleashes the whole show someday.
I'll look into those others, although 8/14/97 has already been remastered by phishjam10 (it's on the Spreadsheet)
- November 23, 2011 at 8:59 AM
I arrived here for the 12/11/99 show...in person, one of the best shows ever, phish or otherwise....sending out a request for 7/9/97 ...esp the Bela Fleck segment!!! peace - JP in Boston
- November 28, 2011 at 6:00 PM
I know you said you were taking a break from 99, but would love to hear a remaster of 7/25/99. It needs your magic touch!
- February 22, 2012 at 2:19 PM
Summer 95 perhaps? There's a lot of crazy stuff in there, and few sources (that I've heard) that couldn't use some tweaking. Mike, especially, is lacking in a lot of material from that tour. Anything you can do to gimme more Mike, will make me a happy camper.
- March 11, 2012 at 1:32 PM
Looking forward to more of your 99 remasters you have done on demonoid. Tucson AZ in particular. Also...
- April 1, 2012 at 10:46 PM
First off, thanks so much, love these remasters. My request, if possible, would be Lyon '97, and a re-posting of BIG CYPRESS, Lemonwheel, and 9/14/99. I've got the AUD of that Boise show, but man would I love to listen to that Bag in better quality. Thanks again!
- April 18, 2012 at 6:39 PM
- pdscjr said...
I'd like to second the request for a repost of Big Cypress. That was one of the finest remasters I've ever heard and I lost my copy :/
- May 9, 2012 at 5:58 PM
Can you repost the Leaked SBD links not in megaupload format
- July 17, 2012 at 9:34 PM
- Kenny Powers said...
I posted the Leaked SBD project on Demonoid only because not only would that require a ton of separate files if I used a typical file sharing service (it's almost 3 GB, but the FBI keeps shutting sites down or limited their services. Just not worth the time and effort for me.
If you don't do Demonoid I'm sure you could ask around or post somewhere asking for split folders...hope that helps.
- July 18, 2012 at 9:18 AM
- adammarcinek said...
Would love to see a remaster of 12/9/97 State College...I know there are not alot of good tapes for this show but it would be awesome to hear an updated version. It will forever live in the shadow of 12/7 but has an incredible simple and great mike's opener...thanks for all the hard work
- October 7, 2012 at 1:11 AM
10-3-99 please all sources are really rough and I there is video that could really use a better audio source.
Also I'm biased first show.
Would gladly toss you the newly sync'd vid with your remastered audio.
Food for thought

Freedom Newspapers
The flood waters have not receded yet — indeed they have been augmented — but the devastation that is much of New Orleans has attracted a coven of planners, visionaries, utopians, reformers and moral uplifters to dream at the Big Easy's corpse. They don't seek to pick the city's bones clean, but to feast on funded dreams during the reconstruction.
To the country's, indeed the world's bien pensants, New Orleans, once the water has receded and the rubble is cleared away, represents a large-scale, irresistible virtual blank slate on which they would love to impose their particular vision of the ideal society. "We have a chance to build anew," thinks everybody from advocates of faith-based and tax-financed rebuilding to those who favor "smart growth," green spaces, high density, low density or urban villages. It looks as if the feds will provide $200 billion, maybe more, of the taxpayers' money. Can we get it to finance our utopian vision?
For ordinary Americans the gathering of the planners is ominous but potentially instructive. A disaster that wipes away a whole city can give an insight into what our officials would do if they had the power they would really like to have.
For example, New Orleans Police Superintendent P. Edwin Compass, faced with evidence of looting, announced that he intended to allow only law-enforcement personnel to have weapons. Even as the old saw about only outlaws having guns was playing out before his eyes, he displayed fealty to the fantasy that inanimate objects, not immoral human beings, cause violence.
How many law enforcement officials would really like to confiscate all weapons if they had the chance? And don't even bring up outmoded relics like the Second Amendment.
Michael Olivier, who as Louisiana's Secretary of Economic Development will play a big role in the process, told National Public Radio that he envisions a lot of green space and top-down planning. We can't depend on anything so chaotic as "urban sprawl" to rebuild the city, he said, and as for traditional American attitudes toward private-property rights, it's time to "accept that we have to do it differently." In service of his vision, of course.
When decisions about economic activities are made through the political process, every ethnic and interest group lobbies to get a piece of the action, if only in the form of mandates and set-asides. Thus new projects in New Orleans are likely to be required to be faith-based and open to gays and lesbians, free of discrimination except for ethnic quotas, environmentally sensitive and rooted in private property, respectful of privacy and open to all.
Oh, what a tangled web we weave. But lawyers and lobbyists will thrive.
Planning is seen in some circles as the key. But everybody in this world plans — or drifts or dies. When the coercive power of government is put behind the grand plans of one faction, the result is to annul the plans that individuals were making for themselves and make it difficult for them to shape their future — unless their only plan is to obey the new order.
The option genuinely rooted in the American tradition — allowing the people who live and work in a place to make their own decisions about their own lives, without imposing them on others who are equally entitled to make their own plans so long as they don't impinge on the legitimate rights of others, all done through voluntary interaction in an open economic and intellectual marketplace — will probably not get much consideration.
But it would work best.

Three accused in BBA locker room theftsMarch 01,2014Three accused in
locker room thefts
MANCHESTER Two Chester women and a Springfield man have been accused of taking items from the locker rooms used by local dance teams on Jan. 11 at Burr and Burton Academy.
Maria D. Johnson, 39, of Chester, pleaded innocent Monday in Bennington criminal court to a felony charge of grand larceny and a misdemeanor charge of giving false information to police. John C. Ryea, 30, of Springfield, and Amber D. Wortman, 25, of Springfield, were listed as co-defendants although the misdemeanor charge was not filed against Ryea.
Neither Ryea nor Wortman appeared in court Monday but court records say there will be re-cited to appear.
In an affidavit, police said Burr and Burton officials reported the allegations Jan. 11. At the time, the dance teams from Mount Anthony Union High School and Springfield High School were using the locker room.
According to police, several items, with a total value of about $1,500, were taken.
Using surveillance cameras that show the entrance to the locker rooms, police identified Ryea and Wortman. Police said neither had a reason to be in the locker room.
A Ludlow woman gave police more information on Jan. 19 that tied Johnson to the incident. She said Johnson, Ryea and Wortman showed her items they took which matched a list of missing items that police had compiled.MORE IN This Just InBARRE TOWN Firefighters faced a collection of adverse conditions as a house on Granitville Road...

8-11-09 Progressive Field
Today was a weird and unconventional snagging day. I would catch zero balls off the bat, and only snag one ball thrown by a player. Yet, somehow I managed to break double digits.
I was the second one in line when I got to the gate. About fifteen minutes before the gates were to open, the old woman in front of me spared two of her friends, a father and his daughter, a little girl of about six years old. Little did I know that the daughter would go on to snag 12 balls of her own today, and assist me with three of my snags.
When the gates opened, I ran in to the bleachers and immediately found ball #1 about six rows back. I continued towards the visitor bullpen, and found ball #2 sitting in an aisle seat. I continued on towards the visitor bullpen and found ball #3 lying in the front row.
I wasn't done searching. I walked over to the Indians bullpen and saw a ball laying in the front row. There were people standing in front of it, but hadn't noticed it laying underneath the chair behind them. I walked in the second row, bent down, and picked up ball #4. It was extremely water-logged. I tried to write '433' on it, but it was just too wet. I'll have to wait until it dries out to re-label the ball.
When I picked up ball #4, I immediately noticed ball #5, which was about fifteen feet out, on top of the Indians bullpen.
I went to work. I tossed my glove out and pulled it in, knocking the ball a good ten feet or so closer. I took out my 'Cleveland Stick,' the collapsible six foot yard stick, and hooked the ball towards me. I reached over and grabbed the ball, for my fifth of the day. The father and daughter who were in line in front of me watched me make the snag.
After finding those first five balls, I tried to play for home run balls.
Game: 12 balls (4 hit, 1 thrown, 7 device)
Season: 275 balls (141 hit, 85 thrown, 49 device)
Games: 57 games (5 of which didn't have BP)
Average: 4.82 balls per game
Career: 441 balls
Streak: 72 consecutive games attended with at least 1 ball snagged.
Attendance: 21,870
5 Comments
Progressive is an awesome stadium tho.
With the towering scoreboard and the video screens in the outfield fence it is as good as they get sometimes.
I know the two times I was there, the spot just to the right of the visiting Bullpen was a hot zone for balls.
Not sure if you are staking out the high leftfield, or sitting in center by the Ford SUV.
I always had fun in that park.
Rays Renegade
Hey Erik,I attened this game also and your right that little girl was getting alot of tossed up balls.
She seriously did get 12. I asked her father after BP was over. I was pretty amazed.
Rays Renegade,
Its definitely a fun stadium to ballhawk in.
Awesome job! Congrats on the double digits! Progressive field seems like it sure is a really good place to ballhawk in🙂 Keep up the good work!
Erik –
It must be nice to Ballhawk with a crowd of less than 20,000! I am sooooo jealous! I mean don't get me wrong whether I have to deal with 20,000 or the usual 40,000 in Anaheim I know I will get a ball or 3 but it would be nice to have a couple of easy days with 7-10 baseballs!
Keep it up!

text: This may seem like a silly question, but I'm a first-time-mom-to-be, so feeding an infant is all new to me! I plan on breastfeeding, but I'm thinking ahead to when I'll need to pump and bottlefeed, when I go back to work, and I'm doing my "bottle research" now. I really like the convenience that the Playtex Disposable Nurser System seems to have, but I would also like to try a nipple that is more like the breast, to avoid nipple confusion (I like the sound of the Second Nature nipples and the First Years Breastflow nipples). Are most bottles and nipples interchangable or do you pretty much need to stick with the same brand for each? Thanks for the help!

California winemaker Robert Mondavi once said, "Making good wine is a skill; making fine wine is an art," a statement that is reflected by the award-winning wines of Northern Michigan. These masterpieces will be featured, along with actual art from local artists, at the 3rd annual Traverse City Wine & Art Festival, held on the front lawn of the Grand Traverse Commons, Saturday, Aug. 20.
"When we were seeking an identity for the festival, we talked about the other things that our area is known for," said Andrew McFarlane, director of the Leelanau Peninsula Vintners Association. "While there was no question that food and music would play a huge role in the festival, we realized that our region is home to some incredible artists of all kinds and felt that we could work to promote these artists and their work."
Artwork will be on-display and for sale at individual booths, ranging from paintings and sculpture to fiber art and functional art.
Participants will have the opportunity to become part of the art, as well. A new element to the festival this year is the Fashion is Art contest. Judges will circulate the area looking for the most creative, the most flashy, bold and dramatic wardrobe. The grand prize winner will receive an overnight spa package from Crystal Mountain Resort & Spa as well as a welcome gift from the wineries of the festival.
For its first year, the festival had approximately 70 wines from 20 wineries. This year, participants have the option to sample over 100 wines from the 25 wineries represented by Leelanau, Grand Traverse and Benzie counties, according to McFarlane. These establishments include, among others, Circa Estate, L.
Mawby, Shady Lane, Chateau Chantal, Tandem Ciders and Left Foot Charley.
Participant numbers have also grown, added McFarlane.
"We had around 1,500 the first year and nearly 3,000 in 2010. For 2011, we're expecting around 4,000." McFarlane attributes a regional wine interest as one force behind the staying power of the Traverse City Wine & Art Festival, despite the growing—and sometimes daunting—num ber of food and beverage festivals in the area.
"(It) has grown every year because of the big focus our festival coordinator Laura Herd has put on the design and flow of the festival," he added. "So many people have told us that everything was so smooth and open, and also that they loved the art and performance and atmosphere of the festival."
Adding to the atmosphere will be live musical performances from area favorite artists including jazz/folk singer Claudia Schmidt, Shout Sister Shout (featuring Rachel Davis) and bluegrass/jazz/folk fusion dance band Steppin' In It.
All musical performances will be held on the stage outside the wine tent, with plenty of room to dance, mingle or just listen and sip. Local restaurants will offer tasty dishes available for purchase, as well.
The Traverse City Wine & Art Festival is Aug. 20, at the Grand Traverse Commons front lawn, from 3-10 p.m. Tickets are $20 in advance or $25 at the door and include two (full glass) wine tickets and a commemorative glass, as well as entry into a drawing for a pair of tickets to these wine events: the Harvest Stompede, Toast the Season, Taste the Passion, Spring Sip & Savor and the 2012 TC Wine & Art Festival. For more information, visit traversecitywinefestival.com.
Artists such as Bill Hosner will show and sell their work at the Traverse City Wine & Art Fest.

My DD has been putting her fists in her mouth the last few days. My gut tells me it's not hunger, but it's distracting to me and I'm sure will be to the guests who attend my sister's baby shower tomorrow and comment on how she's hungry.
I've heard that with teething, the itching can start weeks before. Maybe that's it?

Laurier research institute plays key role in 2014 Ontario election
May 8/14| For Immediate Release
Barry J. Kay
Andrea Perrella, Director
WATERLOO A Laurier research centre will play a key role during the spring election campaign in Ontario. The Laurier Institute for the Study of Public Opinion and Policy (LISPOP) has formed a partnership with Global News to provide analysis and commentary over the course of the six-week campaign.
Barry Kay, a LISPOP associate, will serve as the election analyst for the news network and will head the decision desk on the night of the June 12 election. The decision desk will be staffed with Laurier students and former students, and the exercise will make use of LISPOP resources, which will be available on the lispop.ca and globalnews.ca/toronto websites.
Kay will also generate seat projections, which converts polling data to seats numbers for the parties. The most recent projection was released May 6, and shows a very tight race. These are fairly accurate, often making use of many polls at the same time.
The more polls that are available and the larger the sample size, the less likelihood of a sampling error, said Kay. But they aren't perfect, as we have seen recently in British Columbia and Alberta. When I see polling numbers, I always put a range of plus or minus three percentage points around them in my mind.
The seat projection is one of several features of LISPOPs election coverage of the 2014 campaign. Visitors to www.lispop.ca can view a map of Ontarios 107 constituencies, colour-coded to reflect the standing of each of the main parties and general level of competitiveness, as per LISPOPs analysis of the latest surveys.
Currently, the institute identifies 12 ridings with very tight races showing no clear leading candidate. These include local ridings of Kitchener Centre, Kitchener-Waterloo, Brant and London West. Another 10 ridings lean towards one party, defined as a lead of three to seven percentage points.
Given the tightness in the polls, the election may very well be decided within these two-dozen ridings, said Andrea Perrella, director of LISPOP. We will definitely watch closely how even subtle changes in poll numbers can shift the party standings. But subtle shifts in voter behavior have not been the norm lately.
Perrella says several provincial elections, most notably the recent one in Quebec, show just how quickly a campaign can rattle voters and produce a result that no one expected at the beginning of the election.
Voters are not as loyal to parties as they once were, and are also not as interested in party politics. So, they are not as stable as they once were.
About LISPOP

September 19, 2012 —
HARRISBURG, PA — In a four-to-two decision, the Pennsylvania Supreme Court on September 17 threw the case against the Voter ID law back to the lower court, and told the judge, Commonwealth Court Judge Robert Simpson, that in order for the law, which is also known as Act 18, to be implemented, the court must make a couple of determinations.
One determination is that the new voter identification card created by the PA Department of State, but which is being distributed by the Pennsylvania Department of Transportation (PennDOT), is readily accessible in the manner in which Act 18 says it should be to everyone who applies for it.
On a conference call with reporters, a lawyer working for one of the groups challenging the law said the new ID is being denied to many people. Marian Schneider of the Advancement Project in Philadelphia said people are being turned away, and she said there is a second problem in that people who are being turned away believe they are registered, "so there is some disconnect in the data."
She said earlier in the day, she was working to help a resident who had previously registered to vote obtain an ID, and he could not get one because PennDOT could not locate his registration. While she was trying to help the man, she said, "a guard threw me out."
The other determination the lower court judge must find is that there is "no voter disenfranchisement arising out of the Commonwealth's implementation of a voter identification requirement for purposes of the upcoming election," and if he is not convinced of that, he must block the law from taking effect.
A lawyer working for another group challenging the law said that it is nearly impossible for all of the voters who don't have adequate IDs to obtain one by the date of the election, which would be disenfranchisement. Vic Walczak, the legal director of the American Civil Liberties Union of Pennsylvania, said that as of September 17, the state had issued a total of 9,000 IDs for voting purposes. For the past seven weeks, the state has been issuing IDs at a rate of less than 1,000 per week.
He said, "So even if they were to double that amount between now and election day, that would only be less than 25,000 total IDs, and the lowest estimate for the state is 100,000 voters without photo IDs, so there is still a substantial gap. For the state to close that gap, they would have to issue 13,000 per week, and that's not going to happen."
On the issue of what segments of the population might most be harmed by the new law, the Supreme Court wrote, there is no disagreement that the "population involved includes members of some of the most vulnerable segments of our society [the elderly, disabled members of our community, and the financially disadvantaged].
Simpson must make a determination by October 2, and any appeal will be done on an expedited basis.

Hi, this is my first post and I'm not sure if I'm doing this right or if this is in the right place. I am almost seven months pregnant and my husband and I have decided that we definatly would like to breast feed our child. So here is my question, I was only able to nurse my first child for two weeks. I had an infection and she had thrush and it was just painful for both of us. Is there anything that I can do to help prevent this from happening this time round? I really want to nurse for about a year this time and I am starting to get nervous about being able to. I was told after my production had completly gone down that there might have been medication or that pumping could have helped? Has anyone heard of this?
Thanks in advance for the advice,
