Schubas and Swag and Videos...Oh my!
Since Shelly made her grand return, I thought I'd comment
on a few items from the latest digest. Let me (re)introduce
myself. I am toast, or I am Jeff. Take your pick. I was
around on this list a lot more during its first couple of years.

Yeah....I remember the days when I was a "one of everything" person.
Anybody want one of the special OtR menus from the 1996 listie gathering
at Kaldi's?

Now this I know about. Way back when, there was a lot of tape trading
on this list. I maintained a list of the live stuff, and there were about a dozen
videos, mostly from 1997 for some reason. The list, unfortunately, was
housed in my account with an ISP that no longer exists and is long gone.
There were about a dozen or so videos, a few with Ric. I know his final
show at the Emery was taped. I heard that Ric has a video copy of
the second ever show at Sudsy Malone's circa 1990 or whenever.
