This show is ranked up there as one of the top 3 best shows I have ever seen. As kids we used to frequent the Chance often. I was on the balcony level, left of the stage, and having a blast. Long Division stands out as a memory. Fugazi's music was and continues to bring me peace. Play it loud!!
I truly thought I was going to die at this show. I was at the front of the balcony, smashed against the railing — it must have been 110 degrees in there. I remember sweat pouring off of me, feeling like I couldn't breathe, and worrying that my ribs were going to break. Honestly, I don't much else about the show.
This was the most packed show I have ever been to. The place was filled over capacity from front to back and in the balcony too. You could hardly breathe it was so hot. The performance itself was a little disappointing as I recall but was probably related to the conditions in the theatre. I now see this was their first show in two months which also explains part of it. I am looking forward to hearing the show. Like Adam, I also remember Long Division being a standout.
This was a powerhouse show at the Chance, gentlemen. I can't wait to hear it. There was a wagon train exodus from Albany to get down to the Poughkepsie. The trip down and back was awesome, the show even better and one of us named his kid after Ian. I remember Long Division being exceptionally powerful.

There’s a break where Ian gives props to a Vietnamese restaurant. He couldn’t recall the name, but for the record it was the Saigon Café. It’s a couple who own and run every aspect of the operation- really kind people who deserve their props. I’m not sure if the restaurant is still in operation, but in any case it’s not to be confused with the other Vietnamese restaurant on the same street.
