The 2nd (and final) performance of the DR ZOOM & THE SONIC BOOM from the 1st
annual "Ernie The Chicken Festival" - an excuse for an all-day, outdoor party
extravaganza featuring several local bands including SUNNY JIM and ODIN.
A very good quality soundboard tape of most (possibly all) of the Dr Zoom set
has been in circulation since the early 1990's and can be found on the CD boot
"The Bruce Springsteen Story, Vol 5 - Dr Zoom & The Sonic Boom" (E.ST).
The liner notes of the bootleg incorrectly lists the audio as emanating from the
previous night’s performance at The Sunshine In – however this audio is definitely
from the outdoor (not indoor) Dr Zoom show. MC Kevin Connair can be heard jokingly
warning the campus Ambulances (who were parked nearby) to get ready as Bruce opens
the show with some screeching guitar.
