Fan Recaps and Comments:

This performance was the pre-show for a performance of Swarming B-Girls, starring Karen Stroker and Britt Arbelius, which started at 1am. This was also the band's first time performing at Darinka.^[1]

The poster for this show—and the show that occurred on the next day—were reproduced in a TMBG newsletter with the following text:

Darinka was the site of some of our happiest moments in the mid-Eighties. It was a hundred or so occupancy club in the East Village. We played there almost every month for a couple of years, including a few times for New Years.' [sic] Like many clubs in Manhattan at the time, the set length there was very short. However, the Darinka crowds would often call us back for insane numbers of encores. Having played every song we'd rehearsed, we were sometimes called upon to play songs we had just played in the set over and over again.
