Echo and The Bunnymen at Savoy (03-31-1984)
On March 31st, 1984, Echo and the Bunnymen played at the Savoy Theater in New York City. This performance occurred about a month before the release of the band’s fourth studio album, Ocean Rain. On this March night in 1984, the band would preview tracks that would appear on Ocean Rain, including "The Killing Moon" and “Thorn of Crowns." This show was the first of back-to-back appearances at the Savoy, as Echo and the Bunnymen would play again the following evening with Let’s Active opening. These dates marked the end of a two week tour that saw the band play several colleges (including RIT in Rochester, NY, and Union College in Schenectady, NY) and cities in the Midwest and west coast.
