Flaming Telepaths Tour

A 3-week tour with fIREHOSE, oddly named after a Blue Oyster Cult song. Mike Watt would join the band on the "Starpower" encores (which Thurston sang), and halfway thru they added "The Red and the Black" as well (originally by the Blue Oyster Cult, covered by the Minutemen). It's unclear whether just Watt or all of fIREHOSE played along.. George Hurley, Ed Crawford, and Kira Roessler (who was on the road w. fIREHOSE) all allegedly joined the band onstage at times. For simplicity's sake, I've just referred to Watt in the set lists.

A large portion of this tour is covered in Lee's "Jrnls80s" book.
