tapers - 
thanks to the band for allowing recording (funny how we still call it "taping") and understanding how it's beneficial to the band and it's fans.
without Archive.org, and frequent trading of CD's amongst fans - a lot of us would still have not heard the band in it's "new"/current lineup with Cat and Benny. 
I'll say this again - before a show, or during a break  - go visit a taper and thank them, and ask if he/she needs  a break while you watch their gear, or if you can buy them a drink - these folks have invested much time and money to bring their gear to a show. It takes time to get the right mix of hardware/software and live recording experince to get an audience recording produced in a high enough quality to be fun to listen to. 
One more suggestion - if you're fan who likes to sing along to every word - or maybe you want to converse with your friends during a show - do it away from that mic stand please. it really sucks to have nailed all your settings, and picked the right combo of mics and settings, only to hear a conversation overpowering the music, or someone singing louder than Grace.
thanks GPN and management for seeing how a fan base can be enriched by allowing recording of shows. live show recordings do not slow sales of studio releases, it widens the exposure to even more fans.
2 months minus one day til we see GPN again..... :)
