This however seems improbable when you look at the tour schedule.

11/24/1988 - Mabel's, Champaign, IL
11/25/1988 - Cabaret Metro, Chicago, IL

11/29/1988 - Union Ballroom, University of Wisconsin - Milwaukee, Milwaukee, WI
12/01/1988 - Club Eastbrook, Grand Rapids, MI
Even if you move the unconfirmed Mabel's show from the 24th to the 22nd it would still mean the band did five shows in five nights and I find that highly unlikely.
So last night I was able to find out the correct date of the Mabel's show.

That my friends is one brutal leg of a tour.
We have confirmation of all the above dates with the exception of the Pittsburgh show which we're still trying to nail down an exact date for and at this point the postponement of the 12/17/1988 show is based on fan memory.
Not counting the unconfirmed Pittsburgh show or the postponed Philly show the band played nineteen shows in a span of twenty-four days!
This leg of the tour saw the band play a string of five shows in five nights (11/25 - 11/29) and a string of four shows in four nights (12/1 - 12/4).
I'm still hunting for the article where Perry complains about the grueling touring schedule and I'll post it here once I track it down but it's really little wonder he complained when you look at that schedule.
The bottom line and the reason for my post is that after speaking with helicine we've decided to add the show on 11/26 to the database and have done so.
