Fan Recaps and Comments:
This setlist was included in a scrapbook that also contained a setlist for a show at the Pyramid Club. As this page was not separately photographed, but can be partially seen bleeding through the Pyramid Club setlist, a majority of the songs can be identified, but three cannot. Two songs from the setlist were also seen in a mid-1980s song list given to the Don't Let's Start podcast by Bill Krauss.
The exact date/year of the setlist has not yet been confirmed, meaning that it could be from another show that has been left undocumented.
A promotional flyer created by the Johns in 1983, seen briefly in the 2003 documentary Gigantic (A Tale Of Two Johns), lists this as the band's ninth show of the year.
Rockets Redglare's Taxi-Cabaret, another act on the bill, was a cabaret show/comedy troupe that included Steve Buscemi and Mark Boone Junior. Buscemi and Boone went on to share multiple bills with They Might Be Giants at Darinka.
