First, let me say I loved Mark's Investigative Reporting on the Seattle show. I think a recording exists, but sadly it came from Lulu, complete with gaps (hmm... there's a commercial opportunity--we could sell "gapped" bootlegs with a "GAP" logo on it, and charge the Gap for spreading their name!).
 
Regarding the overall, I am pretty sure Clapton doesn't need an overall... he has at least a few pairs. Look at any biography/retrospective with shots of him playing that "terrible beat-up guitar" blackie (sorry, in my mind, it is still an icon, as much or more than BB King's Lucille... and I forgot to mention on my post about Blackie/Lucille that BB has said there have been numerous Lucilles over the years (Even before Gibson made a "signature model" branded with Lucille's name... but I digress). Anyway, there are lots of shots of Eric onstage during the drunken years wearing overalls (yes, it is plural, folks... maybe an overall would be when you unsnap one of the straps?).
 
And finally, the swamp meet statement, I think that was another misspelling. I think he was referring to the alligator MEAT you get in Louisiana, straight from the swamps?
 
Anyway, I think it is great to do the trades on here, and it's nice not to have to jump through some hoops like some of the sites I have been to... and YES, as soon as I get my own computer back with me here in Nashville, I WILL reoffer the sets I have received (they are still in Kentucky, and I haven't even been able to LISTEN to them, much less burn copies).
 
So, let's all put on our overalls, eat some swamp meat and listen to the new Lyricks from the Seattle show (Lulu-style) and support the Gap!
