[Gong - 19961020 - Alexandria, VA - The Birchmere] Flac set shared as torrent on Dime (unsigned info).
No SBE's. True lossless source.
Both the poster above and Calyx website list this show as Oct 20th 1996 at Birchmere. The poster has Washington, DC while Calyx has Arlington,VA.

To confuse things even more the info with this show has Alexandria, VA.
Daevid refers to Washington during "Outer Temple" so the correct place should be Washington.
