1993.09.22 - Montpellier, France @ Salle Victorie II
Euro Tour opening for Fishbone

Unknown Analog Recording w/Unknown Gen

Notes by Galen: Just to clear up confusion that many collectors have had: this is not a recording by S.D, taper of many classic performances both in France & abroad. The equipment used, most likely a cassette with some ECM Sony microphones of some kind, was not exceptional. This recording is definitely better than nothing at all + it is fairly entertaining to listen to. For one, the performance is quite strong. For those people that may have noticed that, over the course of many gigs, Paul and Maynard's personalities clashed. There was thick tension . This seems to be the case at this gig. Paul acted a bit more cocky than normal to the crowd this night. The tone when Maynard would answer back was rather curse. T-e-n-s-i-o-n. The band still played enthusiastically and there is slightly a different energy this night. Sort of like, although they may be sort of sick of playing the same songs, they are still not letting the audience know that. Interesting, in 2001, it seems that they did not really mind much about repeating songs either... AND.... As a final note for this recording in regards to Maynard and Paul listen to the sample recording...they interrupt each other a couple times and seem to be getting a little pissed

Notes by Ryan A: Another Fishbone opener. Fiiiiishhhhbooooone. It's some kind of analogue recording here. Not so good, but listenable. Apparently it was time to drive the hell out these songs. Fast fast, from Intolerance to Bottom. Especially Undertow, where the ending feels like a speed metal song. Fun stuff, but there are many better Undertow gigs. Oh and the crowd incessantly shriek whistles between songs. As in LOUD! Goddamn my fucking eardrums. Don't they know that people are trying to tape this show, and that there is someone who will be listening to it 13 years later who would just like some peace and quiet between songs!
