Review by tsatsawassa

tsatsawassa Hey there. Was just talking to an old friend of mine who met up with me at this show. We've been friends since elementary school. He remembered that I taped this show and asked if I still have the tapes. I do! Didn't realize this show isn't in the archives so not sure what this might mean to the community. I haven't really kept up with the band very much, but my good friends still love to attend their shows. Anyway, that's my two cents. I remember it was a fun show, but I was pretty nervous because I was only 19 at the time and used fake ID to get in. The bouncers were perplexed by my big bag of recording equipment and weren't going to let me in because they said the band didn't let people tape them. But they eventually let me in. I was at the front of the line before the show too. I wasn't using the most sophisticated equipment, but the show sounds pretty good. I had a two track and an omnidirectional mic. Also had a stand for the mic I set up on a table so it was above the crowd. I was too nervous to get any beer while I was there because I didn't want to potentially get kicked out if anyone questioned my age. I also didn't want to leave my equipment, even though I ran into several friends from Potsdam there who would have kept an eye on it, although they were all pretty plastered. I had driven out from Albany. My first show was at Pauly's Hotel in Albany on May 11th, 1989. I still have the promo poster they put in the window for this show. I recorded some other shows around this time too: Hampshire College and The Chance in Poughkeepsie. Good times. Thanks for reading this. :)
