When Lionel was in the band, City Gardens was the place, and alternative meant more than one thing.

That's not Lionel, that's Coolie Ranx, the first time he joined the band.

The video is awful (can only be a normal VHS at SLP) but clear enough for the internet. What impressed me, besides the Toasters and 'Little Jacob' there of course, was the quality of the audio. Rarely have I heard such quality from a live album. That had to be a DAT recorder, am I right? Thank you so much for posting this, do you have the rest of the set? We'd all love to see the whole thing I'm sure. Five stars.

Yea this comes from an old VHS tape that was in Bucket's basement for over 20 years...tape degrade pretty quickly. The audio comes straight from the tape as well. Nothing else. I have the entire show, yes. We will probably be posting them on our own website after a while.

That was still Steve Hex the original keyboard player.
