We had just finished up the final mixing of \u003ci\u003eAll-Night Lotus Party\u003c\/i\u003e in June and went back out on the road for a bit. Frankly, that was a relief as we were growing bored from performing at political fundraisers, children’s hospitals, and Amish charity events (Pete is Amish).\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\u003cp\u003eSomehow, we ended up on this hardcore skinhead extravaganza bill … I don’t know why. But, without sounding overly confident, I think it captures us at the height of our powers as a unit. We have here what Ginger Baker would call “time,” and as we always played better when it was “us against them,” it made for quite an experience.\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\u003cp\u003eThe original tape was restored by Bob Weston and Jon Williams. Bob tells me the whiz-bang technical term for this is “audio restoration.” Whatever it might be called, they did a great job.\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\u003cp align=\"right\"\u003e—\u003ci\u003eJeff Weigand, June 2014\u003c\/i\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"merge records","offers":[{"title":"Download","offer_id":52739189113143,"sku":"MRG247digital","price":4.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0966\/3935\/3143\/files\/a264e6b6ac63e7214711c87b5bd5d6727c686418_ee9879bbc9cceef6d0dbacb1e589ce1887e64966_medium_jpg.jpg?v=1785380973","url":"https:\/\/mergerecords.com\/products\/volcano-suns-old-pain-t-live-at-city-gardens","provider":"Merge Records","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
