I'm writing this in 2025. I remember the show was announced the day of. Somehow my friend Kevin still had a flyer. He shared it once I asked online if anyone recalled the exact date. It's handwritten and says: "Tonight". Another thing I recall about this show over 30 years later is that Calvin made everyone in the room feel like he was staring at just them. It sure was something else.
