Surfaced:
• Audio #1. 01:36:28. There are sound fluctuations. The sound quality gets better starting with Best Sunday Dress. There’s a cut in the banter after I Think That I Would Die and there’s a cut in between Sugar Coma and He Hit Me (before the encore).
• Audio #2. FM Radio Broadcast – Plump, Beautiful Son, Drown Soda, Gutless, Best Sunday Dress, Credit in the Straight World, Doll Parts, and Violet. Appears on the bootleg Vengeance is Mine.
• Audio #3. FM Radio Broadcast – Drown Soda was officially released in Europe on the compilation album My Body, the Hand Grenade.
