Reviews

Both the KROQ and KCRW appearances were on the same day - 4/24/89. KROQ was later (after 10PM, as it was during the regular Loveline slot). I have both on one tape and that's the date written on the J-Card for both appearances. I recall hearing the start of the KROQ broadcast live while driving home, getting there and throwing a tape in to record, then trying to get through with a (reasonable) request on the phone. My recording of the KCRW set has to be a dub from a friend as I hadn't got home yet, as it starts after the KROQ set. I called in sick the next day, went to the Sherman Oaks in-store, then went to McCabe's.
