Hey, man. Impressive attendance list - I find myself completely and utterly humbled.
Odd question here, but I was curious about The Replacements' Pine Street Theatre show from 1987 - the only record of that particular show is what you have listed, but can you recall anything about the show?
I'm trying to trace the origins of their song "Portland," and this show or their appearance at Starry Night seem to be the only potential candidates. Any details you could spare would be greatly appreciated. Thanks!
The Elliott Smith show's info was taken from a recording: http://archive.org/details/esmith1996-11-18.La_Luna_Balcony_Portland_OR_FLAC
A google search of "Elliott Smith La Luna November" turns up a few more pages that say that the show happened on the same date, but if you're positive that it wasn't, I can make an edit to the setlist. Might you have any idea when the Smith show did take place? That would help
Trentskers, let me do some research from my end here in Portland. I'll go down to the library and check past newpapers on file and see if I can come up with a definitive answer. It might take me a couple weeks.
Wondering if it could have been some kind of underage afternoon show, but Nov. 18 was a Monday, so that would seem odd.
This is interesting...I found this link for the Elliott Smith show at LaLuna, but the address given (215 SE 9th Ave Portland, OR, US) is actually for Pine Street Theatre:

I think you made a totally logical suggestion regarding "Ship of Fools" by World Party. Similar rules can be applied to all the other World Party song titles on setlist.fm. Are you interested in doing this?
