Mr. D - Was the Chicago '89 gig recording mystery ever solved? A while back a thread was started about the mixer recording of that show that was circulating being a copy of either the Detroit or Cleveland show (can't remember which). I think Jarvo mentioned that there was some skepticism by the band's management about the authenticity of that show being from Chicago during the compilation of the live tracks on Retro.
I'd be curious if there is new news on this.
Cheers.
Think I know the answer. "Chicago" is Hoffman Estates, and "Cleveland" is Cuyahoga Falls.
You're right Mr. D. As usual, you're a wealth of info.
From what I remember of the discussions on this issue first time around is that when I compared my Hoffman Estates gig to the setlist on NOOL for that gig, it didn't match up. Solitude checked his source and found the same. Turns out that the setlist for the supposed Hoffman Estates gig was identical to the Cuyahoga (Cleveland) or Pine Knob (Detroit) gig (can't remember which one). I think the conclusion was reached that Hoffman Estates gig hadn't surfaced and that the one in circulation was credited to Chicago '89 in error. I'll see if I can find the original thread.
Here's the original thread:
