A bootleg from one of the very last shows of The Sisters of Mercy in their First And Last And Always line-up, when Gary Marx had already left the band.
In fact, it was the first gig of the American leg of the Armageddon Tour in 1985. After these shows, The Sisters of Mercy returned to England, played the
Royal Albert Hall, split up a few month later and things developed into those directions we're all used to by now.
The bootleg was originally released in 1990 on vinyl and cd by the famous The Swingin' Pig Records bootleg label.
A year later, a Polish cassette bootleg of similar content surfaced in online auctions. Also the CD-version was bootlegged in 1993.
This CD imitates everything apart from the title "Floorshow", which is replaced by the time and place of the gig.
