Tickets: $15.50
Notes: ‘Love Lost’ is an instrumental that occurs on Slim Dunlaps 1993 album “The Old New Me.” Great version of ‘Happy” and some nice audience participation at the beginning of ‘Black Diamond.’ Petula Clark’s ‘Downtown’ is done amazingly well and with reverance. An incomplete version circulates starting with ‘Happy.’
Recording: Audience
Bootlegs: Live In Boston ‘87
I was at this show. Any chance for a re-up?
ReplyDeleteTHis was my first concert and i would absolutely love to hear this!
ReplyDeleteI'm pretty sure this was the replacements show I saw.
ReplyDeleteI remember them dancing around in overalls (especially tommy and bob) and someone throwing something up on the stage (pill of some sort) Bob ingesting them and then joking that he had just taken acid?
They blew the start of Black Diamond as well?
I remember being very glad I had seen them but wished I had done so when they played the living room in providence RI several years with both Stinsons!
Meant to say Paul ingested the pill or "unidentified substance" and when he mentioned acid I wasn't sure if he was referring to LSD or drain cleaner?
DeleteI was up in the Balcony, glad to be inside anywhere in the theater that had nets up to catch the falling plaster from the ceiling as this was a faded beauty.
Nothing $20 couldn't fix as Tom Waits would say!
Final clarification, Bob Stinson had already left the band, this was the era of Slim Dunlap as this show was to support Pleased to Meet Me. Loved that album and the band overall but felt like things had certainly gotten tamer seeing they playing in an run down Opera House without Bob and nobody on stage got naked!
ReplyDeleteI was there too. Student at BU at the time. I remember thinking they were shit-faced (but maybe more) and it was either overalls or coveralls and at some point they started taking them off or maybe switching clothes? 28 songs seems crazy for how chaotic I remember it being. But so fucking fun!
ReplyDeleteOh wait - am I thinking of the wrong show. I was at the one where they did get naked!!
ReplyDeleteAnd the one I saw was definitely at the Opera House, not The Channel. I was in the balcony too.
