1. There is proof, as already stated.
2. More importantly: this technology is available, and WIDELY (probably invariably) used for live releases by many bands. What would be the basis for anyone to think that DMB does not use it?

He really isn't advocating a double standard. He is merely saying that when you are releasing a single track from a show, you do not have to pick a track with a flub. Why pick a track with a flub when you could comb through the 150 or so performances of PFWYG from 1995 or earlier for the VERY best one?
Also, I am not opposed to fixing an isolated, obvious, horrible mistake in an otherwise pretty tidy show; but to re-record or otherwise run an entire show through a machine to ensure a pitch-perfect flawless recording for release is a bit disingenuous. But, I am no longer surprised by the commercial aspects of the band, though it continues to disappoint me. I pretty much reserved myself to this incarnation of the boys when I watched Dave go from wearing pj's on stage to what he is wearing on the cover of Everyday.
