  NOTE: 2 shows, 2 separate downloads
The Mayflies USA 
Cat’s Cradle 
Carrboro, NC 
Feb. 2, 2007

(The Mayflies USA opened for The dB’s — making it a two-fold reunion show)

soundboard (EX; nice clear mix, transferred from master tape)

REPERCUSSION: Chris Stamey produced The Mayflies USA's first two albums, and he evidently encouraged them to open for The dB's when they played a reunion show on the same night. You'll also want to know about the group because they fit comfortably in the "power pop with an alternative edge" category. If you don't know 'em, check out The Mayflies USA ... and enjoy.

THIS POST IS BY SPECIAL REQUEST.
