    Yes I’ve posted about these before. and posted them on the blog. I’m on there as Mutantpop.

    BTW Tom - those aren’t the trans dates for these shows - these are from 2002, and I have those shows. They aren’t the same.

  7. timbearcub says:

    So these shows are the ones from 2000? They were supposed to be 2001 or 2002? I’m confused…they’ve been floating around for a while. I have the other two btw.

  8. Sean says:
