Second of a few Iggy Pop masters from the RH tape vault. He taped both February 1980 OMR
performances, as well as several subsequent ones which will be making their way here in
due course.

While I suspect there are extant recordings, since setlists for both 17th and 18th setlists
are out there, I believe these don't commonly circulate.

A/B split between "Joe And Billy" and "I'm A Conservative"

According to http://free-zg.t-com.hr/JesusLovesTheStooges/IGGY%20POP%201976-1983.htm#1980
drummer Klaus Kruger and one-time Heartbreakers bassist Billy Rath (who died just this August,
RIP) left band after the New Orleans show, to be replaced by Doug Bowne and Mike Page by the
next gig...

Interestingly, there's a bit of live footage online that is dated as the 18th, but after
comparing it to the recordings, is clearly from the 17th, as this encompasses the version
of "Hassles" with the restart (I've left a comment): http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6kyLF-CqrtY

NOTE: I ended up copying this with my deck set at 120us instead of 70us, since it sounded
overly muffled when set 'correctly'...suspect this was recorded with normal bias. I typically
audition tapes with all combos and select what sounds best. Due to RH being positioned closer
in, the recording is clearer and less boomy, as the crowd sounded a lot less threatening on
the second night.
