Notes

Master cassette tape
The vocals are a bit too far back on several tracks and there is slight tape hiss (on a 1-5 scale, The hiss is a 2). Still, this is a definite must-have if you enjoy Gang War. A "B."

Quote of the night (it says it all): Wayne - "What is goin' on with the power here? It's fuckin' up the party, I'm tellin' you."

Jesus, you'd think a club that booked a band named "Gang War" would be prepared for some serious wattage! WRONG! PA system problems almost caused this show to be a train wreck, but our boys held the line and then put forth a valiant effort. Again, this is a great example of Wayne and Johnny playing without being fucked up. No drunken guitar lines squiggling all over the place and no slurred lyrics. 100% Maximum Rock 'N' Roll.
