  • We previously asserted that "Rachel Sweet did not open. She quit the tour after she was booed off the stage on 2/12/80 in Washington, DC." This was based on a review of the next night (2/13/80 show in Syracuse). Yet Walter Keenan recalls Sweet opening this early show, she know she opened the late show (based on Walter and Joe Tucker's recollections), and the show review in the Boston Globe also mentions Sweet. We have not noted whether the review notes the early or late show, or both.

    This recasts the Sweet micronarrative a little bit, which will be an issue of interest to specialists.

    Face: $9.50. Sellout.
