Satan, Satan spreads his wings with desire. And dances a lovely disco dance across the floor. Because Satan is John Travolta. Satan, yeah." Mark introduces the first known performance of Don't Fade IV with, "this is from our very first single."

12/15/90 The Old Greek Theater. Melbourne, Australia
Set: Come to Mind/(Jam) (set incomplete)
Notes: The band had most of their money stolen from their hotel room in St. Kilda and scheduled this show at the last minute so that they'd have enough money to make it back home.

Notes: Good Enough is performed for the first known time. "Same Ol'" is written on the setlist like that.

Following that, the band and crowd have a good time throwing beer cans at eachother.
