Show Notes: Suzy included an Owner of a Lonely Heart tease. I Didn't Know
included Mimi Fishman on cymbals. Mimi also counted off the break in BBFCFM.

technical notes:
I removed a very short drop-out during the crowd noise after "Punch You in the Eye" (no music was affected).
The end of "Big Black Furry Creature from Mars" was missing from the DAT.
The missing portion was spliced in with the following source:
Neumann RSM 190i > Neumann m/s Preamp > Teac DA-P20 > Sony D7
http://db.etree.org/shn/6044
The Neumann RSM 190i source was used for the following portion of "Big Black Furry Creature from Mars":
01:28 to 06:53
