OK, this is going to be short. I just got back from skiing and I got back in time to see Kepi/Kevin/Jonah’s Christmas show. It always fell on the 24th in the past so I could never see it due to family conflicts. Anyway, this one would have been good for mediocre Monday. It’s incomplete (battery packs finally conked), it has a little diginoise, and it’s the Smashing Pumpkins. Sorry.

Odd, I just realized that there is no Smashing Pumpkins on the Sacramento music archive. I taped their 1994 Lollapalooza set and this one.
Over the next few weeks (weekdays), I will be posting sets from the 1993 Almost Acoustic Xmas. On the night of Dec 11th, I was driving to grab dinner for the family and I turn on KROQ and I hear that they were broadcasting the entire show live on the radio! I listened to KROQ regularly back then and did not recall any advertising for the broadcast. I hauled ass back home and grabbed a DAT and started recording. I was broke back then, so I have these sets scattered over about 5 DATs. I think I only lost a couple minutes of one set due to tape change- General Public. I even was able to edit in the interviews from other sections of the tape. The Blind Melon interview is a sad foreshadow of their future. Anyway, hope you enjoy these. I became a fan of at least a few of these bands through this broadcast.
