Notes: This show was a Lawn Boy release party. Trey dedicated Reba to his friend "Dave." YEM contained Charlie Chan and Oom Pa Pa signals and a Sweet Emotion tease from Mike. Some recordings that circulate with this date are actually a compilation of performances from this show and the previous night.

This show was part of the "1990 Tour."

TheEmu The jams in the first set, namely Reba, Mike's and Weekapaug, are dissonant and not very enjoyable, IMHO. Most of the rest of set I is pretty average, I think, although the Hydrogen is a bit spotty. The second set picks up it's game a little bit, on the strength of a pretty good Magilla, a YEM that rips pretty good for a while, and a Whipping Post encore which takes an interesting detour to start the second jam. The Stash, however, is really messy. I was thinking two stars after the Stash, but the YEM and Whipping Post I think do enough to nudge this back to three stars, if just barely.
Score: 0
