Lost Sailor -> Saint of Circumstance
Sept. 11, 1982
West Palm Beach Auditorium

Can't believe this Sailor>Saint isn't WAY higher...its better than the entire top 10 listed ... its as great as S>Ss get. This for me is a top 5 show all day long. The LIG, the S>F etc on and on every version.

Glenns Falls Civic Center
