February 14, 1986 - Tucson, AZ

Show Day - Sunny

Up at 8 - I shower first. Pack up - we all go to breakfast at Bob's Big Boy. We all pose for Lee in front of Bob. Say goodbye - off to Tucson AZ. We drive and drive. Arrive in town about 8PM. It's an all-ages hardcore show. We keep our stuff in the van - police are cruising all over the place. We eat at Wienerschnitzel - bad food.

Bob's Big Boy, Frisch's Big Boy, and Azars' Big Boy - we tried them them all. Here's the Wienerschnitzel website.

Back to "Trash's" house in the center of town. Hang out. First band 'Tumor' isn't all that bad. I get a tape of theirs and a copy of a zine. Next up - 'Any Three Initials'. A great name - a bad band. Play too long. We play. Crowd is going nuts - good sound - we were on a hot set but had to shut down. Cops claim there is a gas leak. Then we started up again. 3-4 more songs, then "Serrated", then "Bitchin" - over at 1:30AM. Crowd was pleased with us but not the fact that they closed down. Pack up and try to find a motel - all booked. We go to a house party. Talk and to bed at 4AM.

I still think 'Any Three Initials' is a funny name.
