Tapers Memories: (a little hazy :-)
While in college in California a few friends and I used to traveled to various music venues.  This day found us in Berkeley.  We showed up mid-day, and eventually went to the Keystone to check out the scene.
The doors were open so in we went; started drinking beers and playing pool.  A little while later John Cippolina asked to join us at the pool table.  We chatted, drank and shot pool.  Eventually I asked if it was okay to record.
He introduced me to the soundman, who recommended I not patch as the mix was way off balance and certain instruments and vocals might come out too weak or too strong.
Instead he let me set up my friends boom box with built in mics on the front edge of the soundboard.  I recall the soundboard was in the front of the balcony, but I might be wrong.
On the master tape's cover, I have a cut out from the SF Chronical's Pink Section that notes: THE GHOSTS with Keith and Donna Godchaux.  Plus: The Edge w/ Ozzie Ahlers, Lorin Rowam, Mark Stein.
The cost of the show was $3.50.  I also have a ticket stubb for a performance on 27-APR-1980 at the Old Waldorf in SF.  Cost of that show was $5.00
