Interview with Kosmo - Sound 3 - 24min - low?
Kosmo Interview with Eric Beaumont aka Eric Blowtorch

Don: Hi, I don't remember how I ended-up with an unused ticket for each show, but I still have them. The thing I remember most about the shows was the differences in the two performances.The first one was upbeat, high energy.

The 2nd show (Friday the 13th) was very dark, the last song was "I'm So Bored With The USA". I spoke with someone else who had gone to both shows he had the same reaction as I did -- the 2nd show had a foreboding mood

Anyway, very cool web site -- really well done.

Did you go? What do you remember?
