Hi Trevor,
The longhaired local clerk at a Tempe, Arizona head shop promised to smuggle my cassette recorder into Bungle's 1992 show at After the Goldrush, so I could record your show. His name was Ted. He said he knew you all somehow. My recording would have sounded like shit on my equipment, but my high school fandom wouldn't be deterred, and I think he felt bad for me. He never met in the club to give me the equipment, though, but afterwards, he said it didn't matter, because you all recorded that particular show through the club's soundboard. I know it's been decades, but I wanted to finally ask if you did record that show? The board tape of you all playing "The Stroke" in Chicago on that tour still hits for me, and the sound is so clear and your energy so resounding, that I hope both new and OG fans like me can hear a full board recording from that wild '92 tour. If not, can you at least let me know if you taped any of your shows like the headshop clerk told my teenage ass? This question lingers from my childhood. And yes, it surprises me that I still wonder, but I've been writing a long article about early Bungle -- your creativity, friendship, and originality -- and this question came up. So did a stack of cool flyers from that show that I saved like the dork that I am. (I'm self-publishing the story on my Alive in the Nineties Substack, for free.) Thank you.
Happy 2023 to you and yours.

My answer:

I don’t think we ever intentionally recorded our live shows. It’s possible our soundguy did. It’s possible i have a cassette of that show in my house somewhere, but I don’t recall seeing “Tempe” written on any cassettes. I don’t know anyone named Ted.
