The 13th Anniversary Show Live in the U.S.A.

The 13th Anniversary Tour Live in the U.S.A.! is a live album by The Residents. It was originally released in 1986 as a double cassette and re-released on CD in 1992 by the Residents fan club UWEB. Both versions of the release are difficult to find, as they were both limited to 500 copies each. It resurfaced again in 2009 on the band's website as an MP3 download,[2] and was reissued as another limited edition double CD (now out of print) and Bandcamp download - with every song having its own track, plus a bonus song - by the Viennese label Klanggalerie in 2017.[3]

Red Eyeball Mask Eulogy

The intro to this version of the show is a "eulogy" for the red eyeball mask, worn by a member of The Residents, which was stolen after one of the shows and subsequently returned. During this show, black armbands were handed out to mourn the loss. The group felt that the eyeball was cursed, and the wearer from that time on became Mr. Skull, performing with a large skull mask instead of the trademark eyeball.
