At the Bear's Lair on UC Berkeley campus

The Probe #1: "MR T. EXPERIENCE / SAMIAM / GREEN DAY / BEAR'S LAIR, BERKELEY, APRIL 7, 1991.
The best thing about this show was the venue. Lowenbrau Dark was only 2.75 a quart! I took full advantage of this and therefore don't remember much of Mr. T. However, my friend Todd assures me I had a wonderful time. (Shit! I just now remember being up front dancing with this girl in a hat that looked like Jenny.) Before that, I have a less clouded memory of Samaim and Green Day. G.D. were better than I expected. They sounded like Bad Religion without the big words, very tight. The harder they played the better they sounded. Songs about girls and other good stuff. Samiam was more Greek male. The singer complained that some magazine called him disgusting-looking without his shirt on, but he took it off anyway. I ran into him later in the bathroom and he was drunk as fuck so I asked if he was that wasted on stage and he said, 'Always.'"
