    Comments: 'She Shines' was released by Grey Daze's Jonathan Krause online in 2006. Two more songs surfaced in 2010. The videos contain fade-in/fade-out visual effects and captions introducing the band members, the songs and the venue. On May 25, 2015, LESTAT (LPL staff) obtained the full show from Jonathan.

    - Right before kicking into the set's first song 'Commit', Chester introduced the band by saying: "Hi, everybody, we're Grey Daze!... And...alright. This song is a song about love. Hope that you have a loved one. 'Cause love is a beautiful thing".

    - Part of the outro of 'Commit' was sped up comparing to the demo that was recorded live during David Knauer's pre-production session for Wake Me nearly a month later.

    - Right before 'Painted' the band had some minor technical difficulties that caused a small delay, so Chester took the time to introduce the song: "This next song is about a boy. The boy who thinks that nobody understands the way he lives, you know? The boy who thinks that everybody's after him. And nobody wants to be his friend".

    - Chester dedicated 'What's In The Eye?' to his passed away friend named Sean.

    - The band performed a different version of 'Morei Sky' with a slightly different guitar solo and an extra chorus added to the end.

    - The band performed what appears to be the early version of 'She Shines' with a slightly different chorus melody and breakdown structure.

    - After 'Spin' Chester introduced every band member but himself, jokingly saying that he forgot his name.

    - Mindy Nilson of Lemon Krayola came out to sing 'Shouting Out' with the band.

    - 'Starting To Fly' was played at a faster tempo than the version that appeared on "Wake Me". Transition between the first chorus and second verse was twice longer than on the album version.

    - A few seconds into 'Come On' the song was stopped and restarted again. Part of the lyrics of the second verse were different and the outro was shorter comparing to the demo that was recorded live during David Knauer's pre-production session for Wake Me nearly a month later.

    - During 'Start Me Up' Chester threw a few Grey Daze t-shirts into the crowd.

    Debut(s):

    - This was the first time ever the band performed 'She Shines' in public.

    Other Notes:

    - This is the first full Grey Daze show recording to ever be released.

    - This show took place a month before the band has hit the studio to record their very first album, so a lot of the songs that were performed during this set and ended up being released were somehow changed with the help of the album's producer David Knauer.

    - The song 'She Shines' almost didn't make the album because the band wasn't sure if people would like it. When they played it at this show, Chester commented that it was a brand new song and it's public debut. After the song was done, the reception by the fans was enough to convince the band to put the song on the CD.

    - The Linkin Park community wasn't aware of the existence of the song called 'Smoke Mouth' until the video of the band performing it during this show randomly surfaced online in 2010. According to Sean Dowdell, it was never recorded in the studio and is just one of the 20-30 Grey Daze songs that were never released. In 2015 with the release of the full show, we also became aware of the songs titled 'My Bluest Day', 'Painted' (no relation to Sean Dowdell And His Friends song with a similar title), 'Everybody's Falling To Pieces' and 'Piece Of My Mind'.

    - Lemon Krayola was also a very popular local band at the time. Interestingly enough, Lemon Krayola also happened to be the opening band for Stone Temple Pilots’ second ever gig in Arizona that took place at the Mason Jar in November 1992.

    - The band performed at Guitar Center's Grand Opening event. The concert was held outside the store on a dirt field (there were no buildings around at the time).

    - The setlist is unknown, but the band reportedly performed some of the songs several times, probably because the crowd was changing as huge lines of people were walking in to the store.

    Other Notes:

    - The Guitar Center in Phoenix was opened in 1997, then closed, then reopened a few years later on a different spot of the same building. LPLive contacted several people at Guitar Center to ask about the exact date the store was first opened, but the only info they have is the opening date for that second location.

    - A recording of this rehearsal was obtained from Jonathan Krause by LPLive and released along with "Grey Daze Story" in October, 2015. According to Jonathan, the band practiced at McDowell Studios in Phoenix at the time and assumes it was the place it was recorded at.

    - On the recording, we can hear the band performing four songs in jamming form with 'Come On' and 'Smoke Mouth' being less developed comparing to the other two that sound nearly identical to their other known recordings.

    - Before 'Wake Me', Chester also jokingly rehearsed his introduction of the other band members (Jonathan, Steve, Sean), thus confirming Steve Mitchell was still in the band which means it was recorded sometime in the first few months of 1994.

    - The show was planned as a benefit for former Grey Daze member Bobby Benish, who was having difficulty paying his medical bills since being diagnosed with a brain tumor. It was going to be a one-off reunion show at the Dodge Theatre in Phoenix with Phunk Junkeez, Pokerface and Gift joining Grey Daze on the bill for the night, but was later indefinitely postponed.

    - According to Linkin Park's official website, the show was postponed because of "unavoidable time constraints of recording the next Linkin Park album". The announcement came on August 28, 2002. In a statement posted on the site Bennington said, "It's very unfortunate that we are having to postpone this concert but our management has pulled everyone back from vacations and various activities in order to meet our recording obligations. However I will continue to help Bobby and his family at this very difficult time. I’d also like to thank the fans in Phoenix that were willing to support me in this endeavor".

    - Unfortunately, Bobby died on September 28, 2004. The show never happened.

    - When asked if he was invited as the bass player for the event, the band's former bassist Mace Beyers said: "Yes, I was invited. Chester flew me out to California, I stayed with him for a few weeks and the show got canceled. I believe it was the label's bullshit that caused that cancellation. They also blocked the re-release of No Sun Today".

    - According to Sean Dowdell, the guitarist for the event was going to be Jason Barnes and there were no rehearsals before the show got postponed/canceled.

    - According to the band's bassist at the time Jonathan Krause, the band went with the spelling "Gray Daze" during the band's earliest days before finally changing it to "Grey" a few months later.

    - The show was advertised as the Lemon Krayola's EP Release Party.

    - Jonathan Krause supposedly talking about this show: "After he [steve Mitchell] left, we had a show booked at the Mason Jar and my old guitarist from a past band I played with filled in for that show. His name was David Engelhardt. David thought we sucked. Eventually we tried out many other guitarists and found Jason Barnes, who is basically a 16 year old prodigy at that time". David and Jonathan both were the members of 22 Fires.

    - Judging by the photos from this improvised show, it looks like Chester and Jason Cekoric (bass) were the only Sean Dowdell And His Friends members that took part in this performance, unless the other members of the band were playing from a different side of the courtyard.

    Other Notes:

    - The clipping below comes from the Greenway High School's 1993 Yearbook, according to which, it was a performance during the extended lunch period on one of the school's newly implemented "flex schedule days". This novation was also covered in the November 20th ,1992 issue of Greenway High School's own newspaper called Demon Dispatch with a photo of Chester and Jason appearing on the front cover. Both of the photos were taken by the same photographer. The exact date is unknown, but it's possible it was just one of many performances of that kind.

    - The gig was moved from Nita's Hideaway to Mason Jar at least a few days before the show.

    - Some of the later local concert ads list God Lives Underwater, Flourescein, Grasp, Dozer and Skyline Dayz as the performers on this date, so it's possible that Grey Daze's appearance was eventually canceled, unless they weren't playing under one of the listed monikers for whatever reason.

    - The flyer for this show was released by the band's bassist Jonathan Krause along with 'She Shines' live video in 2006, so the recording (including 'Commit' and 'Smoke Mouth' that were released a few years later) was assumed to be from this show. However, with the release of the full recording in 2015, it turned out it is actually a different Rally Kap show that was played around the same time.

    - On the very first day of working on the band's debut album Wake Me, the album's producer David Knauer recorded the band playing live in his studio. He recorded their performance straight to DAT tape and had Chester say the name of every song so it was on tape as well. The three Grey Daze demo tracks ('Commit', 'Come On' and 'Here, Nearby') that were circulating for years are actually just a small part of his unedited live recording. David: "Then I made cassettes for myself and each band member from this digital master. We used these to listen to the songs for a week or so then got back together to talk about the songs and choose what goes on the album. The only copies out in the world were the 4 cassettes that each band member had".

    - Unlike the way 'Commit' was performed in Rally Kap Sports Bar a month prior to this show, part of its outro was not sped up during this performance.

    - The version of 'Morei Sky' performed during this session still had a slightly different solo and an extra chorus at the end of the song comparing to the final studio version appeared on Wake Me.

    - Before kicking into 'Come On', Chester mistakenly introduced it as 'She Shines', but then corrected himself.

    - 'Shouting Out' did not feature any female backing vocals during this performance.

    - According to David, both 'Holding You' and 'Believe Me' were so new at the time, the band had to play them a few times to get them right live.

    - A few of the lines on 'Here, Nearby' were switched comparing to the final studio version appeared on Wake Me.

    - Unlike the way 'She Shines' was performed in Rally Kap Sports Bar a month prior to this show, this time the song had a chorus melody that is identical to the one appeared on Wake Me, but the song still featured a totally different structure with lesser number of choruses and, as a result, bigger emphasis on the line "So eager" which, at the song's climax, Chester sings 16 times in a row.

    Other Notes:

    - 'Commit', 'Come On' and 'Painted' didn't make it to any of the band's CDs.

    - In February 1996, the band asked David Knauer to produce and record their 2nd album, so he started pre-production for it on February 18th. He brought them into his studio and recorded 1-1.5 hours worth of material on multitrack. David: "It was the band playing live. It had the songs that made it to the record, songs that didn't. And a few ideas that weren't songs yet". However, in the process of preparing for the album, the band was signed to LA's record label called Real Records and went on to do the record with different producer and engineer - Glen Parrish and Andy Barret. The album was nearly finished, but then canceled, so the band went back to David Knauer to record what became "No Sun Today". David: "Then just before we started the recoding of “No Sun Today”, on 12/13/96 I was in a bad car accident. I spent the next couple months in Los Angeles and Mike [Jones] went on to do the record".

    - 'The Down Syndrome' was so new it had no name at the time and was simply titled 'New Song'. That version of the song featured just Chester on vocals and Bobby on guitar.

     Other Notes:

    - Despite being performed live, 'Ryan's Wisdom', 'Old School', 'Commit' and 'Super Star' didn't make it to any of the band's CDs.

    - This is the only known performance of 'Old School' and 'Super Star'.

    - Judging by the tracklisting written on David's tape, it looks like the song 'Just Like Heroin (A Little Down)' was simply called 'Heroin" at the time.

    - According to both Mace Beyers and Sean Dowdell, this was one of the band's biggest shows ever. However, according to Grey Daze's manager Kerry Rose, the show was a total bust, because, according to him, "only about 300 people showed up".

    - The show's initial press release says: "Earth Day '96 Festival: Earth Day Arizona celebrates the 26th annual observance of Earth Day (Monday, April 22) with an environmental fair from 11:45 a.m. to 10 p.m. Saturday, April 20, at Desert Sky Pavilion, 2121 North 83rd Avenue. Highlights of the free event include a trash-art contest; poetry readings; and scheduled performances by MSG featuring Michael Schenker; Gilby Clarke; the Lynch Mob; and Lode. Call 254-7599".

    - The ad from April 17th, 1996 issue of Arizona Republic also states "The event features more than 20 local entertainment acts, children activities, a trash art contest, face painting, jugglers and educational booths".

    - This midday show was the first one of two band's concerts on the same day.

    - Since this was a Halloween show, all of the band members were dressed up as members of KISS.

     Other Notes:

    - Sometime in the second half of 1998, shortly after the tour to Southern California, the band members separated their ways. Grey Daze's manager Kerry Rose: "We did a small tour into Southern California, including a fantastic show at the Whiskey a Go Go on the Sunset Strip. Although we had other record companies looking at us, nobody came forward. After that tour, the band was at a crossroads. It really didn't seem like continuing forward made sense unless we could move to the next level. I had invested over $10,000 in the band". The overall frustration over the band's limited success has led to more personal conflicts between the band members, so Chester and Mace Beyers decided to leave the band. However, Sean Dowdell and Bobby Benish decided to keep it going and added a female singer Jodi Wendt and bassist Dave Sardegna to the band. The band did a few shows under the name Grey Daze, but soon after they changed their name to Waterface with all original material written by the new lineup.

    - The Phoenix New Times clipping with an ad for this show was submitted for LPLive by Jodi Wendt.

    - According to the band's bassist at the time Jonathan Krause, the band went with the spelling "Gray Daze" during the band's earliest days before finally changing it to "Grey" a few months later. This is the first known show after the name change.

    - The band's flyer for the show does not specify the main act for the night, so it is unclear if it was a headlining show or Grey Daze were opening for either of the two other bands.
