Dime user Persic was a regular fixture on the local club scene where I first met him at a Chapin Sisters show and we turn each other on to our favorite local bands etc. He is most well known among collectors for recording just a massive amount of Springsteen shows but now he is raiding his collection for some of this other tapes and some pretty nice stuff. Usually not into any generic Elton John recordings from random tours but grabbed this one and enjoying it now. Funeral For A Friend/Love Lies Bleeding sounds a tad fast for my ears but it's probably just the cocaine.
 
And I asked, he did not record Quarterflash. I forgot they even existed til I heard Harden My Heart in a grocery store recently. Talk about a band time forgot, I remember being 9 years old and that song being all over KLOS and KMET

Last Call / Brief Intermission

I am completely out of storage options unless I wanna resurrect my FileFactory account, and that would just be rude, so I am going to have to start emptying out the Mega + Google accounts, at least until I can use WeTransfer again. So get it now because once they are gone, they are not coming back. But I don't have many new transfers, Jan is always a dead month for anniversaries and I wanna finish my book which often involves stopping and playing the songs mentioned within for the full immersive experience. So when I finish the book I will empty out the Mega account and post some more shows. Probably not going to reach the level of intensity of the last year or so however which is why I am not spending / taking donations etc. Decided to pump the money into hard drive and better storage options for my physical media.  In the meantime I was been trying for a few years to get audio resynced to a Jessica Von Rabbit video and the same person filmed Mudhoney from against the stage but
