Comments:

*2/24/94 Oakland Col. were the date and location given.  

Strange listen.   Worth it for the Franklin's Tower which Jerry refuses to let die, otherwise its pretty painful.



There was a decent amount of hiss which given the rehearsal nature of the recording is distraction.  XNoise did an adequate job at minimal settings.



Thanks to M.Townshend for sharing his cassette source.

02/21/2006 	Charlie Miller 	I just realized that they played Oakland on 2/24/95. That's probably when this is from. Keep in mind that The Valentines (Bobby and Vince) played Man's World on 2/14/95 making the 2/24/95 date make more sense...cm

02/21/2006 	Psilo Jones 	yep - this is the discussion that took place when this was torrented on bt. it is from '95. and its a man's world is an audio abomination.
