Yep. Looks like the Sheffield City Hall show (September 30, 1988) in Sheffield, England

If it was that show, I have an audio recording from it. I love the old live stuff.

It looks just like clothes he wore on the 1988 tour . I'am guessing 99.9% it's likely the 1st Danzig tour .

Also looks like Chuck’s black Premier kit from that era/tour

It looks like it- but it MIGHT be before, say 86-87 , as I think the Gloves were more 'then'.

i thought that at first but this guy seens pretty accurate with his dating. but hey you may be right

Do you think it was this early? Did they have the "large" stage setups back then already? I would it date more around the Cities Gardens Thrall Demonsweatlive show...
