They Might Be Giants
— with Lincoln opening —
Agora Theater in Cleveland, OH
October 23, 1997

Fan Recaps and Comments:

Absolutely amazing night. The World Series was in town, so Cleveland was fully focused on that. With that, there weren't a lot of sales for the TMBG show, so they changed the venue from the main Agora theater to the ballroom, which is a fraction of the size. So you had ~500 rabid TMBG fans in tight confines watching a band in its prime.

One of the best shows I've ever seen, and a memory I'll treasure.
