Notes
  • "From Steve Marcus: In case you were wondering, 3/3/87 opened with Quinn The Eskimo because Bob Dylan was at this concert. When asked to sit in he said he would rather watch from the audience so he went out by the soundboard for the first few songs and then had to leave to catch his plane back to Los Angeles..." (per Charlie Miller)
