Sugar - 1993 05 07 The Academy, New York City, NY

A J.C. Production

Doing a mini-run through Sugar in 1993, startign of with a show I was at.

Show notes:
I was at this show, and it was loud. This was back in the day that I didn't think of ear protection, and I'm surprised this tape sounds as good as it does. My memory of the show was that the band was tight but the sound at the Academy was just overloaded and muddy. Nice acousic set midway through the show, marked by *, followed by a full run through of Beaster.

Transfer Note:
Some applause was quite loud, so I lowered a few applause sections. There's some mic crackling because this was a very loud show. Encore break after JC Auto.
