 To paraphrase the great Loudon Wainwright III: " Taping on acid is easy.... taping on acid's a breeze. Just keep your fingers off the dials.... and don't laugh, don't fart and don't sneeze! " Welcome to the second part of my rant!  These "Two Trippin' A-Holes" that taped this show didn't even make it for the first set, and did a pretty mediocre job when they did bother to show up. I'm putting this on The Archive for a couple of reasons, however. 1)  As a cautionary tale of drug abuse and taping a show with your fingers on the dials. 2)  It was the only time I saw AJ on the East Coast. 3)  I'm pretty sure it was the first time I saw "Sweet Thing" in person, and it was definitely the only time they dedicated it to me. 4)  The Acid Song is somewhat rare, and Words to Live By is definitely an unusual find in the setlist. Anyway, you can hear the first night and read a bit more of my rant here .
