Notes:
- The date of this show is unknown, but it must be sometime after June
1990, since John comments "We've got a record out" at one point during
the show, and "Blues Traveler" released in June of 1990. The most likely
date would be July of 1990, since Chris (who clearly guests on three
tracks) was on tour with the Spin Doctors for virtually the rest of the
year. The only other possibility may have been early December, when the
band passed back through Virginia, playing Trax in Charlottesville on
December 7th. I have dated this "07-12-90" simply to give it a date,
but the "07" refers to July while the "12" refers to December.
- There may have been three sets to this show, as John says "We're gonna
do one more" before Weird Chick, then says "We'll be back in a few
minutes" after Mother Funker. Unfortunately this is all that exists of
this tape; it was the B-side of another tape Rich gave me whose A-side
was from a different show, and was labeled simply "Barrelhouse 1990".
- Tape is stopped after But Anyway, Outta My Hands, Weird Chick, Gotta Get
Mean, and Closing Down The Park. Outta My Hands and Gotta Get Mean also
fade in, and Closing Down The Park cuts off.
- Bad squeak in right channel starting at end of t01.
