Hey Kids!
Dave Goo here (it started out Dave Goob, but it regressed to Goo one night when Robert was on a bender ;).
This is the first Rabbit Choir show I taped with my D6, and has always been one of my favorites. Several of the then "older" tunes (like Bombadil, Summertime Lover, Younger Days, Part With Your Sadness, The Comfort, Patrick etc) fell out of the rotation soon after, so this tape got a lot of play over the years... even when RC was still playing live! It also happens to be the only show I recorded with the mics placed on the table (as opposed to somewhere near the soundboard and/or up and away from the crowd) which puts you two tables away from the stage if you put on headphones and close your eyes. The effect is enhanced by the omnidirectional mics, which basically pick up the whole room. Of course, this means everyone gets to enjoy hearing the bartender blend my margaritas during the acoustic set, assorted chitter-chartter, glasses clanking, and plenty of exuberant outbursts of "EEEEEE-YAW!". I've always dug the sound of the bus pulling away outside of the club at the end of Younger Days... it couldn't have been better timed.
First set is acoustic (well, sort of!), and the second electric. Enjoy!!

Thanks Dave, this is great!
Wow, really loved listening to this show. I can remember that night, Buck Naked and the Bare Bottom Boys were playing downstairs on the main stage. We somehow booked one show a week for three weeks. This was the first show in the series and what a rocking show.
One of my favorite parts about playing Paradise was smoking weed in the secret room behind the soundboard on the first floor. What a great place.
