Notes: This particular recording I have updated approximately 5 separate times since 2000. That said, this will be the last modification to this entry unless the taper of this show, somehow, rears his head. I ascertained the actual 2nd Gen Cassette of this recording from a fella from the Great White North (not Canada - Alaska, USA)... we can refer him to as Ballz. Ballz is an old, old school taper (i.e.: he taped 6/23/1993) & collector who can legitimately refer to himself as OGT. Not that he would want too. But he could, quite a bit different than many of Tool collectors or tapers. As it is, this is actually a phenomenal recording, particularly for the era as to when this was recorded. Even during exceptional loud portions of sound there is no brickwall. Absolutely, a stellar performance by Tool. Now, there were (perhaps still are) some incomplete recordings of this source/performance floating around collections (so watch out) -- they start with Sweat.
