That song is of special importance to this couple, and the band sneakily agreed to play it while Brian would propose to Shayne in the middle of the venue floor. You can hear the crowd go nuts a couple of times during this tune, the 1st time for the proposal itself, and the 2nd time for Shayne saying "yes". :) Much love and best of luck to them both... they are truly awesome peeps! --Tech Notes-- - This was somewhat of a "quick-n-dirty" mix/mastering job, but we do have plans to go much further with this particular show when we have a little more free time. We hope ya'll can dig on this version in the meantime. - As noted above where it reads "Official Bleauleg (1)", the '1' simply indicates that the finishing (ie: mixing & mastering) that went into making this Bleauleg is of a "1st draft" type quality. Due to the sheer # of recordings we've done and the demands of the trading world to get these out there, we simply can't spend an exorbitant amount of time on each show. Should there be a voiced demand for improvements, we may opt to release a 2nd revision (and so on) somewhere down the road. Our Mantra: Nothing is ever final. - Comments, complaints, suggestions and/or special requests can be sent directly to "Trader Dan" . ********************************************************************* * For a full tour schedule, free music downloads, CD purchases, and * * much more, please check out www.MontbleauBand.com.
