A full-band appearance at the annual Fat Fry Festival, which was broadcast on KPIG (its name is a tribute to KPIG's predecessor, KFAT), KFJC and over the internet. The setlist is typical of the 1996 shows, with plenty of older songs that hadn't been played for some time (e.g. Hand Of Kindness, and the full-band version of Hokey Pokey which is always a highlight of these gigs).

This is an upgrade of this set, sourced not from the broadcast itself but rather from a pre-FM master VHS. It is slightly more complete than the FM source, including all the between-song banter. The artwork here is for the older, shorter release.
