01/23/88 Tacoma, WA - Community World Theater
Length: 50 min - complete
Quality: (private shot)
Generation: VID(1) -> remaster -> DVDR(3)
Comments: The band played under the name "Ted Ed Fred." Dale Crover played on drums. There is a small crowd in attendance. After the first song, the band gets no response from the audience. The band starts Hairspray Queen, but has to stop after the first verse as Krist's bass has stopped working. When the song comes to a halting end, the crowd starts booing. Krist asks if he can borrow a bass. At the end of the show, the band jammed on Led Zeppelin's "Moby Dick."
