Two sets from the same tour.....
The Cleveland gig feels pretty low energy - crazy long gaps between songs and a borderline pathetic Keith Morris rant ("why don't you give US a fukkn break man?? We've had equipment problems tonight, we can't even fuckin' play up here because there's so many people up on the stage..." - nothing like an armchair quarterback 26 years later, right?), but they still rip. Detroit mix is a little rawer, but the band is absolute fire (check the hi-hat on "Operation" for fukk's sake). One of the best '80s North American punk/HC bands at their height.
