  On March 24, 1987, the Descendents were at a pivotal moment in their career, performing live at Mississippi Nights in St. Louis. This performance coincided with the band’s rise in the punk rock scene following the release of their album "All," which came out in 1987, just a few months after this recording. This album showcased the band's evolving sound and solidified their reputation for blending punk with catchy melodies and introspective lyrics. Interestingly, "All" was a return to the studio for the Descendents after a brief hiatus, and it included fan-favorite tracks that would become staples in their live sets. During this time, the band was known for their energetic performances and the songwriting partnership between Milo Aukerman and Bill Stevenson was key to their distinct style, making their concerts memorable events for fans. The recording itself captures the vitality of their live shows during this crucial turning point in their trajectory.
