Because jazz-fusion and progressive rock acts from that era relied heavily on soundboard recordings, audience bootlegs, and tape trading networks, these shows are typically cataloged across specific archives rather than mainstream tour directories:
Live Music Trading & Bootleg Lists: Specialized online databases and long-standing trader text files (such as Jazz and Fusion Bootlegs lists and community archives on platforms like YouTube's rare live music networks) document an audience recording for a Cologne show featuring Allan Holdsworth on guitar, Gary Husband on drums, and Jimmy Johnson on bass.
Discrepancies in Official Databases: Mainstream gig-tracking directories like Setlist.fm often only capture officially documented dates or specific club calendars (for instance, listing a Cologne date at the Stadtgarten Restaurant on May 9, 2000). Dates appearing later in the autumn often surface exclusively through private collector logs, trading hubs, and tape-vault metadata.
