Eric's Trip
Burning Spear
New Hampshire

Yeah, Thurston introduced Schizophrenia as "Sister" at the Columbia, MO show, too. From your pic, it looks like they didn't have the retro/color-changing light gizmos behind the band and facing the audience the way they did at the show I saw. Or did they?

They had five or six light boxes that changed colors and projected images; beyond that there were no special fx. I kept looking for the giant inflatable pig ;-)
