Notes: Radio broadcast recording which has aged quite nicely. Killer high-energy show too. This is mandatory listening right here.

Squeeze played a club called The World in Manhattan on 1985-12-20 while Oingo Boingo played this show at the Ritz. The next evening I saw Oingo Boingo open for Squeeze at Brendan Byrne Arena (Meadowlands, NJ) and both bands were at the top of their form. If anyone has a document of that show (1985-12-21), it would certainly be a kick to hear. Tech Note: This tape shows some age in the 1st few minutes, with some dropouts due to tape wear, but overall is a good FM master of the band in its heyday. The Band: Danny Elfman - lead vocals, guitar Steve Bartek - guitar Mike Bacich - keyboards John Avila - bass Johnny "Vatos" Hernandez - drums Oingo Boingo info: http://www.buzzine.com/2008/05/oingo-boingo/ (official site) http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Oingo_Boingo (wiki)
