10/20/94 - The Turning Point: Piermont, NY
set: The Three of Us, Waiting on an Angel, Power of the Gospel, If I Could Hear My Mother Pray Again, Oppression/Get Up Stand Up, Don't Take That Attitude to Your Grave, Walk Away, Not Fire Not Ice, Forever, Whipping Boy, Pleasure and Pain, Like a King > I'll Rise
E: God Fearing Man
notes: The band trades instruments for this show. Juan sits in on drums, while Oliver plays shakers and percussion along with Leon; no bass! Ben sings the rare "If I Could Hear My Mother Pray Again" a capella. In addition, the show features early, raw performances of "Power of the Gospel" and a solo "God Fearing Man". "The Three of Us" is performed by Ben playing the main part on the standard guitar, and thus, there is no slide guitar accompaniment, unlike the studio version. Before "God Fearing Man" Ben gives a teaser of what "Breakin' Down" used to sound like prior to JP coming up with the swingin' bass line
