Dave confirmed this was the band's first show in New York on
7.21.92 saying, "We, uh, we went up to New York this weekend. We never went to New York before. I mean, we've all been to New York, but we didn't go as a group and we went up there and we played and they sent us back here immediately."
This confirms DMB played this gig and is the first show in New York. Because they opened this show, the band considering CBGBs as their first New York City show isn't entirely inconsistent.
