from an old CMJ New Music Report:

While Son Of Altered Beast is more like a promo CD-5 than a proper EP, it's still an enjoyable release. And for fans with an insatiable Sweet tooth, it's a must-have. The concert numbers were recorded at Washington DC's tiny but unquestionably hip 9:30 Club, lending them a charged feel. "Superdeformed" opens with a feedback squeal and abounds with abrasive guitar chops; "I Wanted To Tell You" reels with Richard Lloyd's dizzying guitar licks, and a cover of Neil Young's "Don't Cry No Tears" is a reverential homage to one of Sweet's idols.

There are a few songs from Billy Joel's "Songs in the Attic" that were recorded at the Bayou.

as i recall, mxpx did their live cd at the 930 club.

Didn't MTV film a $2 Bill show at the 9:30? Blink 182 maybe?

This DVD includes the acoustic set the Foos played at the Black Cat last Spring. That entire show, an acoustic set and an electric set, was broadcast live on AOL Broadband.

some real old ones:
ramsey lewis: in crowd, bohemian caverns
miles davis: live-evil, cellar door
little feat: waiting for columbus, lisner
nighthawks: live at the psychedelly

Roots did the $2 bill show from the 9:30 club, and I belive it was the Vines @ I want to say the Ottobar for another of the $2 bill shows

It think it was the Hives @ Recher. I only remember cause I taped it - right before the Black Cat show.
