Yes, I see the reel to reel tape deck.  But in other photos I do NOT see
mics in front of the guitar cabinets.  There are mics on the drum kit,
though.  This would mean an SBD recording would not have a direct feed from
the guitars.  The guitar amps themselves fed the auditorium-they were not
fed through the house PA.  And wasn't the mixing console somewhere in the
audience?  Wouldn't a reel to reel patched in the soundboard be near that?
I'm not getting my hopes up that an SBD exists.  (But I do see someone at
what could be a sound console behind the reel to reel.)  Cool pics, though,
none the less.
