    1. This Pere Ubu tour was entitled "Coed Jail: 1975 - 1982". They started with "Heart of Darkness" & it just kept climbing from there. David uses a cane & sits in a chair, but the fire his still burning strong. He drank a bottle of some great looking dark red wine during the course of the almost two hour show. He proceeded on getting ever more toasted & his between-song stories got funnier & funnier. I've never heard Ubu do an encore in all my times seeing them, but this time I guess David needed to piss, 'cuz they left the stage, then the band returned for a brief noodling session, then the man himself returned for a rousing & extended encore of "Final Solution". It was in all a magickal night.
