Jonathan Segel comments from March 2020:
"This was out in front of Sluggo's somehow, I have a visual memory of it, but itâ€™s not an actual stage. We were set up on the cement out in front of their veranda. Daytime-ish, like late afternoon on a weekend? Happy hour concert?"

known technical flaws: discontinuities between tracks after t01, t02, t04, t05
t06 contains a false start and restart of the song, then a bit of wind noise right near the end.

very good sound for the time, perhaps the best of the oldest!? Treble and presence increases during t06, could be an azimuth issue, or maybe the recording mic got moved?

partial stage banter transcription:

(beginning of t08)
DL - "What else is on the list?"
VK "Lassie & Shut us down"
"Can we try some Flipper?"
DL - "if we have time"
VK - "Volker - start drinkin' dude" 
Crowd person - "he's in line"
DL - "Let's do Lassie"

(beginning of t09)
"this is a new one"

(beginning of t10 )
VK "Volker, c'mere"
DL "Volker, c'mere for a second - guest vocalist!"

(end of t11)
"thank you, we're done, alright, now you guys can stick around for like, more serious music"
