OPERATION IVY - June 14th, 1987 @ 924 Gilman St, Berkeley, CA [SOUNDBOARD]

Well, on one hand this is a decent sounding live soundboard recording of OPERATION IVY, who were brand new at the time, playing the now legendary Turn It Around show.  On the other, it's plagued with technical difficulties, broken strings, broken straps, out of tune guitars and anything else that could happen.  So it's a bittersweet post.  I feel like this could describe a lot of Op Ivy shows, at the least the ones I've seen in heard via audio and video recordings.  I am guessing here, as I never saw the band live, but I imagine they were a lot more fun to see and dance along to with your buddies, and were probably focused on that experience, and were less concerned with a technically perfect set that may wind up on tape and then critiqued by some goober ass stay at home dad on his tape blog several decades later.  Lol.  It's Op Ivy.  Don't think too hard about it, have fun, and maybe be stoned.  - DH
