08 Dec 2006 Another legendary club bites the dust: the old Nectarine Ballroom is now The Necto, and no longer features live music.

    26 Sep 2006 Put up a gig stills page for the 24 Sep 2006 Blowoff show (Folsom Street Fair, San Francisco) and added links to the dates page. Thanks to Sumant Ranji.
    24 Sep 2006 An eBay flyer auction has revealed a previously unlisted Hüsker date: 28 Jul 1981, Facility Building, Reno NV (Reno-Sparks Indian Colony). Added the performance to the dates page and added the flyer image to the 1981 flyer index page, along with a second flyer for the July 1981 Smilin' Buddha (Vancouver) shows spotted by Lasse W. on the gigposters.com site. Also swiped an alternate flyer image for the 29 Oct 1982 Goofy's (Mpls) gig from the Motomama site, where it was spotted by Sumant Ranji, and added it to the 1982 flyer index page.
    22 Sep 2006 Learned that the Stockholm venue long identified as "The Ghetto" was in fact a club called Ritz, which ran Wednesday night events called Ghetto. Corrected the venue description page, the setlist entry, and the dates page. Thanks to Herra Gee for the information.

    25 Aug 2006 Found a new flyer on eBay for a 22 May 1984 Hüsker Dü show, opening for Black Flag at Zhivago's in Nottingham, that happened, if at all, without the participation of the Hüskers. Updated the 1984 flyer index page, put up a Zhivago's venue info page and found an image of the place as it appeared in 2001. Updated the dates page.
    25 Aug 2006 While I was sleeping soundly through what apparently was one of Josh Beckett's strongest outings of the year for the Red Sox, Joe Deuel did indeed send a few more photos of the Hüsker Jun 1984 performance at the "West Side Club" in Philly, which I've added to the new gig stills page for the show.
    24 Aug 2006 Put up a gig stills page for the 26(?) Jun 1984 Hüsker show ("West Side Club," Philadelphia) and added links to the dates page. (Thanks to Joe Deuel. I'll add more if he sends 'em)
    23 Aug 2006 A note from Joseph Whiteside called into question the venue identities for a couple of Canadian shows, specifically the 15(?) May 1986 Hüsker Vancouver gig, which he found advertised in an old copy of local rag Georgia Straight as booked for the New York Theatre (rather than Luvafair); and the 18 Oct 1990 Bob Mould Ottawa gig, which he recalls clearly having attended at Barrymore's Music Hall (rather than One Step Beyond—no idea where I got that from). Added the new info to the dates page and linked to an image of the Barrymore.
    23 Aug 2006 Fixed broken link to the Hard Times Cafe (Alexandria VA); found a small picture of it and added the link to the dates page.
    20 Aug 2006 Beefed up the entry for the Australian All That Punk 3xCD compilation and added an artwork page for it.

       •  First Avenue (Minneapolis).
       •  Uptown Bar (Minneapolis).
       •  Mayslack's Bar (Minneapolis).
       •  Lee's Palace (Toronto).
    Updated the links on the dates page.
    18 Aug 2006 Put up gig stills pages for the 12 Jan 1986 Hüsker show (Cabaret Metro, Chicago) show and the 09 Sep 1996 Bob Mould show (Metronome, Burlington VT) show, and and added links to the dates page. (Hüsker pix scanned from Jet Lag #62, not yet transcribed... but I'll get around to it eventually.)
    18 Aug 2006 Added preliminary entries to the annotated discography for the upcoming Blowoff album and a recent Australian complation, All That Punk, that includes a Hüsker track (DWTKIYAL). Linked the new entries to the summary discography.
    14 Aug 2006 Put up setlist for Bob's 16 Jul Philly show (thanks to Travis Vande Berg) and wired the gig stills link on the dates page to this Big Takeover review of the performance.
    06 Aug 2006 Okay, just got a note from Robert Dunn, who posted the reference to the Nova Mob King Tut's show in Grant's guestbook (see yesterday's updates). He's managed to find the ticket stub, and reports that the actual date was 13 Sep 1994. I've adjusted the listing on the dates page.
    06 Aug 2006 Added setlist for the Nova Mob 27 Dec 1992 gig at Maxim Gorki (Stuttgart) and linked it to the dates page (Thanks, eight years late, to David Stedman. I found his letter, but not the recording itself. Yes, I am a little behind on some of this stuff.)
    06 Aug 2006 Updated the venue info page for Benny's (Richmond VA) with a bunch of often fascinating reminiscences contributed by owner Benny Waldbauer.
    05 Aug 2006 Bob Mould is listed as a participant in the 09 Nov 2006 Dylan Tribute (Music for Youth Foundation benefit) at Avery Fisher Hall, Lincoln Center, NYC. Updated the dates page and linked to a photo of Avery Fisher Hall. (Thanks to a very observant David Concannon for posting this info to the Sugar list.)
    05 Aug 2006 Fixed broken dates page link to The Saloon (Minneapolis).
    05 Aug 2006 Added several previously unlisted Grant Hart/Nova Mob dates to the dates page:
       19? Jun 1992, Live Station, Dortmund Germany
       27 Dec 1992, Maxim Gorki, Stuttgart Germany
       Jul? 1993, King Tut's Wah Wah Hut, Glasgow
       04 Oct 1993, 7th Street Entry, Minneapolis
       08 Jun 1994, Röhre, Stuttgart
    All but one of these dates came from rediscovered correspondence and/or dusty cassette tapes that I never got around to documenting. The King Tut's date is based on a remark made 16 Jun 2006 in the guestbook on Grant's website. Most of the dates are at least a little suspect. The Live Station gig could not have happened on 19 Jun, because Nova Mob played confirmed dates on 20-21 Jun at the Entry in Minneapolis. (The German tour began shortly afterward.) A 27 Dec 1992 Stuttgart show is reasonable, but the existence of a "Maxim Gorki" venue there is uncorroborated (there is, however, a theater in Berlin by that name). The King Tut's gig, assuming the reference is correct, most likely occurred in Jul 1993, but that's an educated guess. The 08 Jun 1994 Stuttgart show date is questionable because it conflicts with the Schrikkelpop performance on the same date in Belgium. In any case, I found and added links to venue photos for Röhre and Live Station. Also created a venue image page for King Tut's using a photo I shot of the place earlier this summer.
    03 Aug 2006 Made minor updates to venue notes for the Backstage (Tucson AZ) and the Galaxy Roller Rink (Fullerton CA).
    03 Aug 2006 Live set promised at the 16 Sep Blowoff gig at the 9:30, earning it an entry on the dates page.
    01 Aug 2006 Added Bob Mould's MySpace page to the Hüsker Dü links page.
    01 Aug 2006 Added previously unknown Nova Mob date to the dates page: 20 Jun 1990, Glasgow College of Technology (Glasgow Scotland). School has since been incorporated into Glasgow Caledonian University. (Thanks for the info to Steve McAteer, who remembered that he saw the gig there on the day Scotland lost to Brazil in the 1990 World Cup.)
    31 Jul 2006 Put up a gig stills page for Bob's 22 Jun Academy 2 (Birmingham UK) show and added links to the dates page. (Thanks to Patrick Nesbitt.)
    27 Jul 2006 Added a little information to the venue notes for La Casa De La Raza (Santa Barbara CA) based on recent googling.
    26 Jul 2006 Finally got around to located a picture (although not the greatest) of the 7th Street Entry and linked to it from a zillion places on the dates page.
    26 Jul 2006 Added three more Grant Hart dates (two past, one future) to the dates page:
       17 Jun 2006, 7th St Entry, Minneapolis (opened for Chuck Klosterman and Mark Mallman)
       23 Jun 2006, Bryant Lake Bowl, Minneapolis ( TC Pride Festival).
       27 Jul 2006, Turf Club, St Paul
    Also added setlist for Grant's show at the 331 Club last night. (Thanks to James Lindbloom for the setlist and gig date info.) Also linked to a picture of the Bryant Lake Bowl, added "My Regrets" (new song), "Shuffle Off To Buffalo," and "Silent Night" to the Song Titles page, and added entries for the latter two songs to the Cover Songs page.
    21 Jul 2006 Added The Grannies' cover of "Never Talking To You Again and Thurneman's cover of "Signals From Above" to the Hüsker Dü covers cross-reference. Put up an artwork page for the Grannies CD. (Thanks to Andy Mongoloid for the Thurneman pointer.)
    21 Jul 2006 Put up generic flyers for the 1981 Children's Crusade tour and the 1983 Metal Circus tour; updated the 1981 and 1983 flyer index pages. (Thanks to Lasse W. for the pointer to the 1981 poster on the Punk History of Canada site. No idea where I swiped the MC tour image, which has been sitting around for a while, but it most likely came from an eBay listing.)
    21 Jul 2006 Added a couple of upcoming Grant Hart dates to the dates page:
       25 Jul 2006, 331 Club, Minneapolis
       18 Aug 2006, Replay Lounge, Lawrence KS ( North vs South Festival).
    (Thanks respectively to Aaron Sumner, via the Sugar list, and James Lindbloom for the pointers.) Found and linked to images of the 331 Club and Replay Lounge.
    21 Jul 2006 Made a minor update to the venue description page for the Calgarian Hotel.
    17 Jul 2006 Put up a flyer image for the 03-04 Jul 1981 Hüsker gigs at the Smilin' Buddha in Vancouver, updated the 1981 poster index page, and linked to the flyer from the dates page. (Thanks to the ever-vigilant Lasse W. for spotting this one on the ever-interesting Punk History of Canada site.)
    16 Jul 2006 Added Minutemen We Jam Econo (2xDVD) entry to the annotated discography and put up an artwork page for it, featuring video capture images of Greg and Grant, who were interviewed for the film. Added the link to the summary discography.
    15 Jul 2006 Added Blowoff (advance CD) entry to the annotated discography and put up an artwork page for it. Added the link to the summary discography. Fixed the song titles page to account for the retitling of "Mark Dirt" as "The Ballad Of Mark Dirt."
    14 Jul 2006 Put up a gig stills page for the Hüsker Dü 10 Sep 1985 Saltlageret (Copenhagen DK) show and linked to dates page. (Thanks to Lasse W., who emailed a scanned review of this show from Sam Nyt Magazine, which included the picture. I'll probably get around to adding the review itself... eventually.)
    14 Jul 2006 Found a previously unlisted Bob date (thanks to an eBay flyer auction): 25 Mar 1991, Grand Emporium (Kansas City) and added it to the dates page, along with links to a venue image page and the flyer image. Also updated the 1991 flyer index page. [Note: the Grand Emporium official website is not responding at this time. If it remains off the air, I'll try to come up with better link.]
    14 Jul 2006 Added Bob's 05 Aug 2006 Homo A Gogo Festival appearance at the Capitol Theater (Olympia WA) to the dates page. Also added a link to a page featuring some venue photos. Note that both this and the 06 Aug performance in Portland are Blowoff gigs featuring live sets.

    05 May 2006 Discovered the exact date of the 1983 Maverick's (Boston) Hüsker gig while browsing this gigography for the Proletariat, who opened the show on 23 Apr 1983. Updated the dates page with the new info.
    02 May 2006 Correspondent Andy Nystrom writes to say that he's been comparing notes with his friend Carla (Caldato) Trujillo about the 02 Nov 1985 LA show. As as a result, he agrees that the gig did in fact take place at Charlie's Obsession (see 23 Apr update below), not at the Hollywood Roosevelt Hotel as previously reported. Cleaned up the affected segment of the dates page.

A little digging reveals that Bob's also performing when the festival moves to Harewood House in Leeds a few days later, where he'll be sharing the bill with, among others, The Who (Yikes — Live at Leeds!) on 25 June. Added the appropriate updates, along with image links for Hyde Park and Harewood House to the dates page.
