Notes:
- 10,000 Maniacs opened & dare I say were very good.
- This date in GD history was officially released as the soundtrack to "Truckin' Up to Buffalo" DVD.
- minor digital glitches in set one, most notable towards the end of the set.
- The 2nd set tape starts with some digital flutters (tuning 0:40) that leads to multiple breaks in the tape.  The breaks left behind an odd digital noise that appeared every twenty seconds or so & lasted till approximately the 3:50 mark of ToG.  Thanks to Dan Tepper & his AKG's for suppling the rug to sweep this under.
- PitB reprise finishes what was started in Foxboro (7/2/89).
- It was late morning & I was standing on a corner (with a dollar in my hand).  A nondescript white van pulls to the stop light, as it approaches the light it's side door slides opens.  The man whom opened the door asks me something but I haven't a clue as to what he's saying.  I only notice that he's sitting on the bench seat with Jerry.  My only response was to thank Jerry for the music.  Jerry said "glad you like it".  With that, the door slid closed & the white van sped away.  I have no idea who else was in the van or what that person even said.  'Ask the time baby I don't know'.
- Lake Erie was treated to a fine Bertha.
