History

In september 1974, parts of the three shows on December 8, 9 & 10, 1973 at The Roxy Theatre in Hollywood, California were released on the double-LP set Roxy & Elsewhere, along with music recorded a few months later (on May 8, 1974 at the Edinboro State College, Edinboro, Pennsylvania and on May 11, 1974 at the Auditorium Theatre in Chicago, Illinois), all of that material being overdubbed and remixed.

Roxy by Proxy consists of unreleased material recorded live from the two shows held on December 9 & 10, 1973 at The Roxy Theatre, Hollywood, California. Thereby, Roxy by Proxy presents a material as the audiences in attendance heard it live, a material different from any of that used on the late 1974 release.

gollark: Turi now has § and Æ.

gollark: Like (ugh) Python.

gollark: Some languages lack block comments.

gollark: Hmm, maybe if an invalid command is detected, it should just pick the nearest one (by... Levenstein, however you spell that, distance of bytestrings representing each command? or maybe just the difference in codepoints) and run that.

gollark: You have such great command ideas!
