Dee cut the big letters out of a seed catalog and copied two hundred of these at the library, ten cents a page. The show drew 212 people, the most the Grange ever let in.

The first Ditch Lilies show, in the basement of a rented house on Mill Street. The flyer gives the address only as “the green house, knock loud.”

Admission was three dollars or three cans of food. The lodge sent 640 cans to the county food bank the next Monday.

The release show for Silo, the band’s first tape. The flyer asked everyone to bring a chair, and most people did.

An afternoon show on the deck of the half-pipe. The city loaned a generator and the fire department came to watch.

The library’s teen board booked two bands and served lemonade. Quiet hours were suspended for the afternoon, by a vote of the library board.

The release show for the first Static Hum compilation tape: eleven bands, eleven songs, one very long night.

Potluck Riot’s last show anywhere, and the last show at the Grange before it closed for repairs. Admission was a dish to share.

Drawn in ballpoint and copied at the bank where Tom’s mother worked. The band remembers fourteen people and one dog.
