Timeline notes: This show can be found on the CD bootleg "These Days", albeit incompletely. A new complete version of this show taken from the same source has recently surfaced on the trading circuit

Notes:
-volume fluctuates after d1t1
-MS refernces losing his suit again
-unusually long pauses between tracks
-PB hits a sour note, and MS makes monster sounds during Can't Get There
-MS gives a story about Caroline, who likes to move a lot, before Auctioneer.  He started the story too late though and the band arrives at the point where MS is rquired to sing, ending the story.
-Kensey in a coffin story before said track
-Before Little America, MS Notes that Pat Robertson, "ringleader of the 700 Club and incredible facist, has decided to run for the Presidency.  Peter doesn't think he'll make it."
-MS before RFE, "Now lets flip back the pages of time", wierdness during the song as well
-the Amen, Brother Ben thing appears both before and after We Walk
-this is an interesting show.  Lots of pauses between songs, kind of interrupts the flow, but the band is on it while playing, & doesn't seem to get impatient.  Lots of subtle and not so subtle barbs from MS, maybe it's just that you can hear them in this fine recording

Grade: A
-I guess I got the complete version here
