Cheers Gobby, Lordgeorgejerry, and Deco!
According to Ska'd For Life, by Horace Panter, if the date/venue is right, this would be the Saturday, January 26th 1980 gig in New Orleans, LA. (Louisiana *not* Los Angeles...)
Horace mentions Rod's guitar going out of tune at the New Orleans show and just turning it up, not tuning or swapping guitars. That sounds like it could be happening between "You're Wondering Now" and"Skinhead Moonstomp" to me.
The L.A. Whiskey dates would be from Friday, Feb. 8th through to Monday the 11th. The band played two shows each day, so there was eight total in L.A.
Thanks again!

Greetings, and thanks so much to Gobshyte et al; let there be no doubt: this is The Warehouse in NEW ORLEANS, LA (internationally, "LA" may mean "Los Angeles", but here it means "Louisiana"). The Warehouse, at Tchoupitoulas and Felicity, was an old cotton warehouse, close to the Mississippi River, that served as a venue from 1970- 1982 [opened by The Grateful Dead, Fleetwood Mac, and The Flock, and closed by Talking Heads]. This show, Saturday, January 26, 1980, was a great double bill: The Specials and The Police. I lived in an apartment at 1310 Felicty St.; Apt. D, my senior year of high school, and when we had no ride, we decided to walk, straight down to The Warehouse. As we walked through The St. Thomas Housing Project, a place we would have been "out of place", a voice from a pitch black building, quietly proclaimed, "Ya'll better walk a little faster..." The Warehouse has a site dedicated to it, with other gigs as MP3's... "http://www.blackstrat.net/"
