-- Posted by CovertCrew on Monday, November 9 2009
Through the years we have attempted to record as many of our shows as possible. Most recordings are captured to our multitrack recorder straight from the soundboard, but on occasion we record the show using only microphones in the room, what is known as an audience recording. This show is one of those audience recordings, you hear & feel the energy of the crowd, and if you have ever been to the old Founders Brewery building, you might recognize the sound of that room in this recording also, it is very distinct.
This show features Covert as a six piece. This particular recording was also during the era of Covert when Marc Dixon was behind the drums and Damon Young was on percussion. For those who never saw Covert with this lineup, this show is a great capsule of the kind of energy created from these two powerful drummers. Enjoy.

Covert Acoustic at The Magic Bag!
-- Posted by CovertCrew on Thursday, October 22 2009
What a great night of music this was, and the crowd was full of Magic Bag energy from beginning to end. BIG thanks goes out to Greensky Bluegrass for having us out as openers for the night. We all had a great time with going acoustic. Bob Weir was born on October 16th, 1947, and with a set peppered with Grateful Dead covers, it was a great celebration had by all.
Another BIG Thank You goes to our good friend Z-Man who was in attendance that night. He arrived and setup just in time to start recording only a few seconds after the first song started. It is tapers like Z-Man who give so much back to the community, they truly help the music live forever.
