He didn't get the whole show, as he put it "I showed up about halfway thru your set so didn't get the whole thing -- had no idea at that point who you were and I thought you blew Helios off the stage -- and afterwards I was definitely guilty of telling people that you were like Sonic Youth meets Grateful Dead -- my recording is very "walkman in the audience" but sounds pretty great loud -- i used small external condenser mics & a high quality walkman -- maybe some mastering whiz could give it a shoeshine."
We don't know if we really blew Helios off the stage, but we liked the recording so we gave it to mastering whiz Marco Saenz, and here we are, with 23 minutes of live Dry Nod, 23 years later. 23...

For Julie and Nicole.
