"Torn Into Bacon"

Show #111 Release date: 17. May, 2008

Finally an end to 20 years of waiting for this rare concert recording to appear.  For this podcast we go back to May 6 1988, Sullivan Stadium, Foxboro, Massachusetts.

It's the standard set list but the band sounds tight and gives the crowd a great performance. The pig met an unfortunate end when it was grabbed by the audience and torn to shreds. Fortunately, the band kept a spare inflatable on hand.

Nick thinks we (because I was there) were "an overly-enthusiastic or fanatically vegan audience."  David asked the crowd, "Did you enjoy your way with our pig?" He then adds, "I don’t know what the fuck happened to it… seems like a lack of discipline will get you torn into bacon around here."

Doctored for supersound, enjoy!
