Red House Painters - Live in Seattle @Moe’s - September 1994

How can I begin to tell you how much this band has meant to me? I was in my 20’s and living in Seattle during the grunge 1990’s and so many excellent bands made their way through our local clubs during this time….when there was a really special one, like Red House Painters, I would borrow my little brother’s DAT and record the show for posterity. This is one such memorial. I want to thank user XPro11 for posting songs from the Seattle gig on his YouTube page. It jogged my memory and started a wild search through my boxes for my old DAT tapes. I knew I had a slightly better recording and I began the process of converting this show to digital format.

I know you will feel like you were there. Mark was a little miffed at the Seattle crowd, but also knew there were a lot of hardcore fans in attendance as well and really went all out to give us one of my favorite live performances of a band, *Ever*.

I’ll close with some lyrics from the second song, San Geronimo, "...Lost Summers of my Youth... I spent them all with You…”

With a whole lot of love and gratitude to Mark and RHP.
