So this was THE show for me. I'd seen them in Maine in early '89 and loved them but wasn't sure if they'd go beyond regional. I moved to Austin in 1990 and wasn't sure if I'd ever see them again, but sure enough, they came in October on their way to Colorado and played a quick one setter. I met...

Notable Jam Chart Performances

Individual jam chart entries from this venue:

1994-05-08 Run Like an Antelope (15:47) Set 2 Noteworthy

"Theme from Shaft" quote by Trey. No B&D. Nice segue into "Halley's."
