One time I was over there he handed me this box of tapes that he had. He said "it's stuff Mick gave to me years ago." so these tapes were probably Mick's personal copies of soundboards. He said I could make copies of all the shows if I wanted to. the only stupulation he had is that I organize them for him and that any copies I made for myself I wouldnt trade for at leat 2 years, which I honored. How the shows, which included, Oklahoma City, Little Rock, and Nashville from 1977, Baton Rouge from 1978, Mobile from 1980, and I think 3 or 4 each from the Mirage and Tango tours, got out into circulation is that, once I organized them and gave them back to Frank, he went out to NYC to that lady, and I cant remember her name right off hand, who was selling stuff back then, she got them out into circulation. That's pretty uch the story. I will say this, being the first person to hear those shows was and still is quite an honor for me.

Maureen.... don't recall her last name.
