I DID NOT SEE THIS SHOW, but, they played another extremely small venue, the
Aquatheater at Greenlake, in Seattle. Now, I have been past the ruins of this
former venue, and it's nice, it's a pretty area with just a touch of urban decay. To think of attending a concert here, man, that must have been a helluva show.
