Exact date and venue is unknown, but I would guess it's from 1978 due to the setlist which focuses on the first album , White Music. Another clue is when Andy Partidge says "Are We Not Men?" before performing I'm Bugged", a possible refrence to DEVO's 1978 album of the same name. If any hardcore XTC fans can shed light on the date and venue it'd be most appreciated. Another treat (not XTC) on Side B of the tape, and that will be transferred and uploaded next. ========================== Also some clues for late (around September) 1977 - Devo's "Mongoloid/Jocko Homo"-Single (containing the line "Are we not men" has been released March 12, 1977 - "Heatwave" is introduced as a new song - it was released first on a Peel session, recorded 21 September 1977 - The rest of the White Music songs have been played long before the actual album release. - "This is Pop" is not played, which is only written in October and played from March 1978 onwards - From January 1978 onwards they play "Do What You Do/Dance Band" as medley, not so here Remastering: CUE-Tools Audacity : Normalize independent / DC-Offset / -1,0 gives a balanced sound Fade in Patched end Fade out
