RELEASE NOTES:
Audience Micropohone recordings of this incident have always been hard to come by, and the original soundboard recordings were so full of recording issues (cuts, dropouts, tape flips, missing songs) that it once seemed that release of this show would be impossible. From the day I was handed the keys to the SCI tape archives, this was the first set of tapes I listened to. Over the next year, I spent a great deal of time working on these recordings in order to prepare them for release. As you see, in the end, it was impossible to release this show in its entirety. Despite this, I believe what's HERE more than makes up for what's not.
This Incident ran from Midnight to Sunrise, and after the music inside was over, the Incident spilled out into the streets and continued until the police broke it up. This is, by no means, a flawless performance, and there are some rough, and even amusing spots throughout the show. That said, by the time you finish listening to this release in its entirety, I think you'll understand why I feel this is one of the band's best-ever performances.

"Yes, there are some rough spots as far as the actual recording goes, but this is a true primal gem! If you love cheese then you might love to know how they went from mere mortals to cheesey icons and this will give you a glimpse! The playing is raw but quite exquisite, proof of great chemistry and talent too. Another great thing about this band is they play to their audience. Given a chance even early on to rock a significant venue to the break of day they step up and do not disappoint. If you want or need early cheese then grab this show - I can think of no reason NOT too! "

"This show is awesome. Sound ( other then the Miss Brown`s vocals in the beginning) is great. What a show! Great old time cheese jamming throughout. Please keep releasing old cheese from the archives. This show rocks. "
