[edit] Recording history

Recorded before a loud and responsive local audience at the Odeum Arena in Chicago over two nights in October of 1983, this album features a mixture of the band's most popular live tracks as well as two new songs: "Gameroom" and "Playground". "Gameroom" continues the trend begun on D.M.Z. of directly addressing the concerns of a high-school aged audience, and the album closes with a powerful evangelistic message from Glenn Kaiser, which was typical of the band's live performances.
