CBGBs didn't Dictate - or even Suggest - Set-Structure; It was
PS*G's Choice.
                                                        
To Confirm Someone's earlier Observation: The Truck parked in 
front of CBGBs is a Remote-Recording Studio. It was there all
four Nights. All four Nights were Recorded. 
Alert Folx may have noticed the "$4000. mic-array" suspended on 
a boom, about 9 feet off the floor, just forward of the 
light-tower - Tony "spending Halloween Directly Beneath It" R.
did Indeed so spend it...
                                                 
Yes, All of our Conversations -
                                                    
    "saying this and saying that 
                            and putting someone(s) down" -
 
were Recorded, to be sold *back* to us (Wonderfully 
Orchestrated) at an Outrageous Profit. Patti's Feigned 
Behaviour was Intended to Provoke Suitably Entertaining 
Outbursts from Us.
                                     
Now , hmmm...Didn't One of Us - Several of Us - call for a 
Double LP (Vinyl) containg all of *peace and noise*, plus 
assorted rare delicacies? 
Me? I Could Care Less about Vinyl - 
              But I *Do* Loves Me "assorted rare delicacies"...
                                                   
Certainly this Four day Stand *Did* provide Some: 
"Up There / Down There", "Paths That Cross", "Not Fade Away", 
"I'm So Lonesome...", a Sublime "Radio Ethiopia" (Fri Night 
that), an Intense "Land" ("Horses") (Also Fri), a Couple of 
Fine Jokes,...
