I'm about 95% sure I was at that show. It was at the Troubadour. I remember them filming the show and saying that the footage would be used for a local cable TV show. I didn't have cable then so I never saw the actual show.

I've watched a few of those old days R X videos... and I can't help but think that the guitars sound crap. I don't love the old RX guitar tones that much, but on those videos, they sound even worse, and I can't really hear john's bass... I know it's probably the recording quality that's awful... but I wonder what those guitar really sounded like live... if they really sounded like the way they sounded on the Extreme volume CDs, then it ain't that bad.

It didn't sound anything like that live. It was 100 times louder.
