	Some would say that this was a very important show - a show that summed up the 90s as we entered a new millenium, a show that most of the participating bands made up a large part of the existing Chicago punk rock scene at the time: 26 bands played shortened sets that night, and also appear on the compilation that came with admission to that show - a CD that was not pressed outside of that shows attendance (original copies are not available; you can only get one if someone is selling one used, or through CD-R from Amazon - they manufacture a CD-R on demand when ordered with a reissued jacket). A lot of the songs are b-sides, as is the case with a lot of comps which is why some turn out lousy, but this collection is a fairly good - not great - but good, representation of the show and the bands that were present/played.
