cannibal corpse - 8.19.92 - chicago,il

this one of those "unofficial release" releases.

i remember seeing cannibal corpse playing a one-off show with the rock-afire-explosion (aka the showbiz pizza band) back in 1992. it may or may not have been part of this tour. and if memory serves me correctly there were a few members of dr. teeth and the electric mayhem (aka the muppet show band) in the audience. there was barely anyone attending this particular show. i remember walking up to the bar every so often and telling the bartender that i was getting drinks for my friends but i'm pretty sure he was onto me. i'm not sure if it was the fact that he could look over at the table i was sitting at see that i was clearly sitting there alone or maybe it was the fact that i'd eventually just gave up walking up to the bar and just rolling off of the chair i was sitting in and then rolling my way up to the bar. i'm not really sure. but i'm pretty sure that i saw that same bartender walking out of my mom's room the following morning.

but i'm getting off track.

so once the rock-afire-explosion finished their set members of all 3 bands took to the stage and just started to jam. it was pretty decent. and it wasn't until years later that i'd heard an early version of the cannibal corpse song "orgasm through torture" being pieced together.

the only downer part of the evening was when chris barnes threw his hairbrush at me from the stage while they were playing "shredded humans" because he apparently didn't like my adding of "they stay crispy/even in milk". no sense of humor that guy. and that brush was gross.
