I (once again) had planned another post for the “on this day” series- it was a Henry Rollins spoken word set from Maxwell’s in Hoboken. After spending the 2 hours digitizing, burning to disc, and then working it up in Izotope I discover that it is one of the MacKenzie tapes! D’oh!
So I was up late last night trying to figure out what to post. I came across this and realized that this was probably part of an event for Bill Clinton’s presidential inauguration. It’s the same date, and it is at a fancy grand ballroom in Washington DC. I can’t seem to find ANY info about this show happening. No flyers, no entries on newspaper.com (thanks Dan for access). So, let’s go back to when our favorite bands played a presidential inauguration. So cool.
I woke up this morning to folks doom watching and doom scrolling current events. Please take care of yourselves and turn it off and do something good in honor of Dr. King today… or do something good for yourself. We together can make great things happen if we focus and act.
Oh- one last thing. This sounds odd for the first 2-3 minutes. It sounds like the radio station engineer left the crowd mic on. Then he fixes it.

Recorded by: I can’t remember, but he taped it off the radio that day
