I'll Back You Up
Redemption Song
Notes Dave, at Ms. Conder's Apartment, located in the Pink Warehouse in Charlottesville, played these two songs upon locating a guitar in her pad. This very well could be the 1st time Dave played IBYU for an audience.

This is Dave's original pre band four song demo tape. This is what he gave Carter and the boys to get them to play with him.
This is before Boyd was in the band. Boyd was asked to join for the 3/91 demo to play on Tripping Billies and joined the band shortly after.
Notes: This is the order in which the songs appeared on the Original Demo. All songs featured Dave, Greg Howard, John D'Earth, and Kenneth Davis. There are no known copies of any of these performances in circulation. Dave, with this same crew, also recorded a demo in 1-2/92, repeating STJL and Recently. Both of those songs appear on the old tape/CD labeled 1990-93 demos, and Recently cuts in on Sympathy For The Devil on the alleged 8/21/91 tape/CD. This is commonly called the Nov, 90 demo, but recording actually began in October.

Dave mentions that he is playing alone, alluding to the possibility that a band will join him shortly. This was most likely recorded prior to a TR3 show for which Dave sat in.
