Thanks, Mark.
Greg told a story during the Jughead podcast that I don't think I've heard before. Greg said that when the Huskers played Los Angeles for the first time after D. Boon's death, Mike Watt came onstage and played some Who covers with them. According to Greg, that was Watt's first time onstage after Boon died.
Those gigs would have been the May 1986 Roxy gigs. Not to question Greg's memory, but none of the tapes of those shows have a Watt guest appearance. Anyone heard this story before?
