I'd call somebody who deals with Asbestos and talk to them. I wouldn't leave it there as it can be very terrible for your lungs.

Ask a pro, get rid of it - do NOT cover it over or ignore it.

A room fan at a gig = poof, an unwitting repairman = poof, a bumpy ride in the trunk = poof. Get it taken care of by a pro.
If it is encapsulated properly w/ paint there's no need to spend what could be alot of $$$ on an asbestos pro to remove it. Proper encapsulation and abatement have the same net result - no friable asbestos fibers that can get into the air and your lungs.
