Notes: Sold out Forecastle Festival aftershow on the Belle of Louisville steamboat, which did not leave dock. The show occurred Saturday night / Sunday morning from 1:30am to 2:40am. Pres Hall playing 6 or 7 tunes before Jim James joined them, but I did not record those. The boat was just too crowded for me to get up front for a video view, so I held my microphone & video camera directly in front of the extra set of speakers near the middle of the room for a direct pull from the left speaker, which avoided much of the crowd noise.
