opener is Camp Shuey (or Fungi Mama, I can never keep them straight) (with a little FJEW tease toward the beginning).

Track 1.2 is Munf (with a Jumby tease).

Track 1.6 is Brad's Blues (Fast Blues) (does someone have a real name for this?)

Track1.8 is Beetle to the Badlands

Track 2.1 I'd label as Intro->Gemini: Kingdom of Light->You'll Find a Home
with breaks at 9:55 and 23:43

Track 2.2 is Spice Groove

Track 2.3 is the end of Spice Groove->STTN flipping at about 3:35

Track 2.4 is indeed Moral Decay (and a pretty nasty one at that)

I don't usually say things like this, but I think this is a questionable etree seed. I don't know how widespread it is, so I can't weigh in on the rarity/get the music to the people argument. I do know that the recording is spotty in places, with a good number of pops and gaps. That combined with the incorrect song tracking and incomplete setlist make me question the wisdom of throwing this one to the masses.

That said, I am personally glad to have it, and for the listener like me (perfect, in love with BAM since day one, used to listening to 5th gen cassettes through garbage car stereos) I think it's a boon. Though that YMS is lacking.

Oh, and why are the tracks and torrent labeled 2/21 when the setlist says 2/22?

Thanks for all the track names etahn. I'm with you on the pops throughout the recording, and that I'm psyched to hear it none-the-less. That Jumby tease made me wonder when exactly Jumby was written. Wasn't played live (up on slipbase anyways) before then, and "Angels Come on Time" didn't come out till the summer (providence release party no?).
