I've been looking pretty intensely for some of the unreleased going to... songs to finish the set but cant find any old enough set-list on archive...any suggestions or help? Thanks

What are you missing?

They are out there, but not on the internet.
Post what you're looking for though, I may be able to help. I know I have a small handful of songs that most do not.

I believe that Going to East Rutheford and Going To Bridlington are one in the same, I can't confirm/deny, but I remember hearing this somewhere.

The ones i'm missing i just cant find. they are: Going to Bangkor, Going to Buffalo, Going to Dade County, Going to France, Going to Lubbock, Going to Morocco, Going to Palestine, Going to Pomona, Going to Some Damned English City. Any help would be awesome. thank you os much

I only have a few of these, so some collective rapidsharing would be nice. If it's not ok to share like this - feel free to get out the moderation stick:

Going to Some Damned English City

Going to Palestine
Can be found here: [www.archive.org]

Going to Dade County

I'm pretty sure Going to Bangkor is the same as Going to Bangor, which is on the Bitter Melon Farm compilation.

This is true. It's spelled Bangkor on the original You and What Army cassette and Bangor on Bitter Melon Farm.

Going To Buffalo is part of a collection of songs that John would wish no one else sought out.
You can probably find it somewhere, but you sure don't have his blessing.
If they're ok to post, I can help you out with a few...
Going To Pomona isn't a tMG song, I don't think, because I have a recording of another band doing it and it doesn't feel like John's style at all.
However, I do have Going Through Pomona.
I also have two versions of Going To Palestine, one is 02:18, one is 02:27. I can post whatever one you don't find on archive.org.

I always thought Going through Pomona and Going to Pomona were the same song. Maybe the other version is some band doing a tribute song.

Going to Lubbock is an Extra Glenns song from the Fidelity 7". I believe the Extra Glenns also used to play another unreleased Going to song not listed on Nall's site. Going to Miami.

Bridlington was for some song cycle having to do with England. I don't think there's a East Rutherford in England but maybe I'm mistaken

i have pretty much most of the early recordings that are out there some are on my list.
send me a list of some of the songs you are looking for and i can make you a comp..

Going To Pomona is a Party of One/Diskothi-Q song, so that's probably why Going Through Pomona is named as such.

Going to Miami and Going to Buffalo are both tEG songs, or at least have been performed by the Extra Glenns.

MrGlass to the rescue.

Living in So Cal I always assumed Going Through Pomona was named as such because Pomona is one of those places you'd prefer to go through and not stop.

Don't forget Going to Fontana

At least it's not Blue Cheer

I assumed that the East Rutherford John refers to in Song For An Old Friend, at least, is the New Jersey city, since that's roughly 3000 miles away from California and I figured that's where the song is set.

Not a going to song, but it's gotten a lotta plays recently:
Tulsa Imperative.

This seemed like a good place to post this, and it may be old news to some, but a live recording from some time ago has just surfaced on Dime, for those with accounts. Forgive me if this isn't the place for this, or if this has already been mentioned previously.

"real good girlfriend" is such an awesome song!

I've removed the torrent as I realized that it wasn't the best idea. The download on the next page should work for less than a week, so get it quick!
