unknown shows / recordings
fIREHOSE: unknown date

Danger Mouse • To Damascus: On the tape it sounds like Danger Mouse were supposed to be playing with a band named To Damascus, but they didn't show up, so the band played a 90 minute set.

No Cash Value • No Problem • Disgusting Youth: All on the same tape with no date. I assume all these bands played on the same bill together.

Forced Entry: On side A of the Nirvana 03/19/88 tape. Probably took place shortly before the Nirvana gig.

Forced Entry • Hester Pryne: No date. Both bands on the same tape.

unknown band: Played with Kil D'Kor, Bitter End, and Forced Entry.

unknown band: On side B of the 12/19/87 Steel Pole Bath Tub tape.
