Fan Recaps and Comments:

In a 2018 interview,^[1] John Flansburgh recounted the following story:

One of our very first times performing outside of New York City was in Burlington. It was a very, very odd show. It was organized by the people who ran Andy Warhol's Interview magazine with the idea that there was this thing called performance art coming out of the East Village. We performed this show on a multi-act bill, I forget the name of the venue, it was in Burlington in 1985. We played the Iron Horse in Northampton (Massachusetts) and then we played in Burlington. It was a black-box art-theater kind of place, we were set up on these high chorus risers like if you were in a high-school chorus going to all-state, four or five feet high, and in the middle of our show we were really into jumping around and in the middle of the show one of the chorus risers' legs in the middle bent out and the whole middle of the stage folded in on itself. It was a very early experience with a stage collapse.
