Notes:
Tracks 1-3: From a late 1991 show, probably at Eastern Standard in Charlottesville. Boyd is brought on stage and introduced as "a friend" just before True Reflections. This show took place between the point when Peter joined the band (8/91) and the point when Boyd joined permanently (1992).
Tracks 4-6: From late 1991, possibly part of the same show as the previous tracks. The Warehouse lyrics are very similar to those from the 10.22.91 show (assuming that show to be correctly dated), which would place this performance near then. This tape as a whole came labeled as 10.21.91, so that may in fact be the date of these tracks. The "Water Drum Jam" was labeled as such on the tape, which seems like a fitting title for this percussion jam with lyrics. The end of the jam is cut off.
Track 7: This song closed either a set or an encore from early 1992, probably at Trax. The lyrics are pretty solid, including the actual words "jimi thing." This would place the song after the 12/91 demo in which the song made no reference to a "jimi thing."
Track 8: From mid to late 1991. Possibly the first performance of this song, as Dave introduces it as "an all new song." The track is cut off near the beginning.
Tracks 9-10: From 12.12.93. Thanks to Mezze Andrades for pointing this out. These tracks are NOT from 1992. 12.12.93 is the true date.

*This CD was originally labeled 1993 studio demo, but after re-listening
to it and listening for Peter I noticed that Boyd was missing during the
demo as well. I honestly don't know how I missed that before. This leads
me to believe that the CD was recorded in 1991, before they found a need for
a violin. Granny is the song that debuted last live, debuting in fall of 1992.
If anybody has more insight to the date, I'd be happy to hear them.
**This is the "Kind Intentions Jam" played at a soundcheck in February of 1994.
That copy of the song is about ten minutes long, and has very few lyrics. This
version is definatly more evolved. The song came labeled as MacHead, but nobody
knows if that is the song for sure.
***Something goes wrong a few seconds in, and they start it over again.
Any questions, complaints, compliments, ideas, anything at all,
email me at Itzhobbs@home.com or on AOL at Machead41.

Additional info:
1991-93 w/o Boyd is from Jan, 1993. Boyd's absence is not indicative of the date. All fte song lyrics point
to around this time, maybe as late as early Feb, 93
