I was wondering, about what year the killerwhaletank rant was done. How about Highway Girl Double Suicide?
Killerwhaletank was done a lot during the 1991 tours... Judging by it's pre-Fully Completely esque material, I'd assume Double Suicide was done around the same time

Cool, thanks. Hmmm Kingston. I might need your help when I plan my trip there. I'm sure there are Hip sights to see.
The Roxy show from 91 has a great version of Killerwhaletank. This site has alot of cool info on unreleased/covers and rants from the Hip ... <!-- m --><a class="postlink" href="http://www.geocities.com/sunsetstrip/stage/7868/unreleased.html">http://www.geocities.com/sunsetstrip/st ... eased.html</a><!-- m -->
I think ...

May 3, 1991 for DS - Roxy, LA

April 26, 1993 for KWT - Roxy, LA

Actually, the 4-26-93 show has a different (and in my opinion superior) rant featuring lines from The Maker (by Dan Lanlois), TheLuxory, and If You Lived Here. It culminates with a story about a light house keeper who destroys a nuclear submarine with anti-submarine missles (and becomes instantly famous for it). While musically it's not the clean-cut Nautical transition that they did a lot around this time, if I remember correctly, the music during the rant is pretty similar to Nautical.

If anything, they both could be from the May 3 1991 show at the Roxy (now wouldn't that have been a fun show to be at), but if you listen closely to the Roxy and Elsewhere boot there are tiny cuts before and after Highway Girl.

What singles were these on -- Twist My Arm and Long Time Running, right? Anyone have these still? Hopefully they'd have the answer

That "Me and My Lighthouse" rant is awesome!

I think that both rants are from The Roxy, although in different years/performances.

I thought the LIghthouse rant waz from a Frisco gig in 93.But ya that rant is Top notch....does anyone have that full show? If so can you hook up a fellow Fanboy??????
"Me and My Lighthouse" is from April 26, 1993 at The Roxy.. or at least that is how I have it.

I checked Rory's page and the Hipbase setlist archive, and they jive with what I have.
