That same flyer, furthermore, neatly discredits my 2004 "deduction" that this other flyer represented a 24 Mar 1981 show at the Minneapolis Sam's, an error also now fixed. Updated the skimpy Dayton Sam's venue info page and added a venue image page showing several lovely google streetview screencaps of the parking lot that now occupies the space.

Also noticed that the venue image link for Southpaw in Brooklyn was broken, and cobbled together a venue image page for that as well.
28 Apr 2009 Made a few fixes to the dates page based on discussions with Bob Mould: First, we've concluded that the putative 13 May 1985 show at Rockitz in Richmond could not have taken place as scheduled. Appealing as it is to believe that Hüsker Dü could have pulled off gigs in Richmond VA, London UK, and Cleveland OH on three successive nights, the Richmond-to-London logistics are not realistically achievable. It's amazing enough that the Cleveland show went off on schedule. The 25 Jun 1985 Rockitz show was presumably the makeup for the Richmond cancellation. Second, Bob also notes that there was a Jan 1993 Sugar tour of Japan that was not documented here, with dates at Tokyo Quattro and Osaka Quattro, plus a third date at a different Tokyo club the name of which he does not recall.
19 Apr 2009 Previously unlisted Bob Mould Workbook tour date determined from a flyer description listed on eBay: 10 Nov 1989 at the Bottleneck in Lawrence KS. Updated the dates page and the 1989 flyer index page.
