Inhuman
She's in a Bad Mood
The World Looks Red
The Burning Spear
Confusion is Next
Making the Nature Scene

One of the many surprises in the Great 2020 Sonic Youth Torrent Flood was this show - I thought I'd already heard it, but apparently the previously listed show is a different recording, although the set list is exactly the same. It was tagged "Folk City 1982", but the newly torrented show is apparently confirmed to be 12/11/82. The shows are very similar, and I have moved the previously listed information to 12/01/82. I'm still skeptical that there were two Folk City gigs so close together, but it's certainly possible...
UPDATE: per the band's notes, there was no Folk City date on December 11th, just the 1st. So where is this recording from?
