Apocalypse Now (album)
Apocalypse Now is Pere Ubu's third live album, and their first to document a single performance. The show in question, recorded on December 7, 1991, at Schubas Tavern in Chicago, was performed semi-acoustically, with synth-man Eric Drew Feldman instead handling an upright piano, and Jim Jones playing an amplified (and occasionally heavily distorted) acoustic guitar.

gollark: It's fine, we're probably overthinking this a lot...
gollark: I expect quantum stuff would probably just be special-purpose hardware running specific tasks while coordinated by classical computers.
gollark: There is Shor's algorithm, which lets you factor primes much faster or something.
gollark: Come to think of it, we could probably put a lot of computing hardware into the solar power stuff, which presumably has a lot of power and some cooling.
gollark: The main constraints for high-performance computer stuff *now* are heat and power, or I guess sometimes networking between nodes.
