For real! :thumb:

I'm just guessing here but isn't it possible that the pic you have up of YDC jamming outside is from The Amity Street Party on 4/27/1984?

OK I finally remembered to add these two shows into the database. :oops:

Does everything look OK?

April 26, 1984 - The Tavern, Hampshire College, Amherst, MA
http://janesaddiction.org/tour/show/yel ... 4-26/2189/

April 27, 1984 - The Amity Street Party, Amherst, MA
http://janesaddiction.org/tour/show/yel ... 4-27/2190/

While my friend says that these shows 100% took place, I have for the time being marked them as unconfirmed.
That doesn't mean I doubt they happened, it just means that we don't have proof at the moment.

only issue I saw was how you listed the one song as a Stooges cover - but I fixed that

I played drums in the band, and the party was at my house on Amity St. I can confirm both shows - May 26 at Prescott Tavern and May 27 at Amity St. (UMass graduation) party. I have the audio recordings from both shows, and a few pictures that aren't very good unfortunately. There is a short excerpt from the Hampshire College Tavern show here: https://tsros.com/track/930987/live-at- ... re-college and I would be happy to share the photos. And yes, we did cover a Stooges song - I Wanna Be your Dog!
