Taper's Comments:
1 - HELP!! If you have any uncirculated SPIRIT shows, or better quality FM
broadcasts than what's been posted here before, please share them. If you
know anybody who has shows that fit this category that aren't on DIME, please
dub off their stuff and share it. I'm trying to write a book on SPIRIT and need
all the information I can get. I have a database of over 1500 gigs 1967-1996, and
want to find as much information as I can to add to it. If you have any memories
of where you saw SPIRIT, the more specific the better (venue, city, date, supporting
bands, etc.), I'd love to know that as well. Please leave that in the comments
section or PM me. Thank you!
2 - Show description & comments follow:
The "Wax Museum" was a great, but short lived club, that had previously been, well,
a Wax Museum! They even had a few of the old wax figures scattered around the
place. It roughly held a thousand people. There was ample theatre style seating near
the stage, and behind that tables where the sight lines were not as good. I always
sat in the theatre seats. It also had an attached parking garage, which was a joy.
This was the last time I recorded John Kay & Steppenwolf, and sadly the last time
I went to the "Wax Museum", which closed not too long after this show. I had seen
the band here previously, and that show has been previously posted (Torrent #
258579). This is the band promoting the US release of their WOLFTRACKS album, as
well as road testing new material for the PARADOX album, which at the time of
release, only came out in Canada and Australia. I believe it is available today on CD.
Enjoy!
