I'm talking about the about one mentioned in the sonicyouth.com news a few years ago. Here are some quotes from the archived news from 2002:

SONIC YOUTH SEEKS HELP FINDING EVOL TOUR TAPES As work progresses on the EVOL tour film, it has become apparent that there is no known audio documentation of many of the gigs other than the mic on the VHS camera the movie was shot on. That little mic got pounded. It sounds pretty darn cool, but it has been making people wonder what other tapes exist of these gigs, perhaps to replace some of the camera sound.
Tapes are being sought of the following gigs:
6/27/86 Houston - Café Mode
7/05/86 Huntington Beach - Safari Sam's
7/06/86 Portland OR - Pine street theatre
7/12/86 Denver - Duetscher Hang
7/14/86 Kansas City KS - Parody Hall
7/15/86 Minneaplois - First Ave.
7/19/86 Indianapolis - Hoosier Ballroom
7/20/86 Columbus - Stache's
7/21/86 Cleveland - Peabody's
7/23/86 Rochester - Idols
If anyone has tapes of these shows, please contact studio@sonicyouth.com. Needless to say, the earliest generation you can hunt down is the best, it would be amazing to get original cassettes or reels!
Thanks everybody.

EVOL TOUR TAPE UPDATE
Thanks to the effort of several friendly people, we've got a bunch of the evol tour tapes we were looking for.
We're still searching for the following gigs:

7/06/86 Portland OR - Pine street theatre
7/14/86 Kansas City KS - Parody Hall
7/19/86 Indianapolis - Hoosier Ballroom
7/23/86 Rochester - Idols
If anyone has tapes of these shows, please contact studio@sonicyouth.com. Needless to say, the earliest generation you can hunt down is the best, it would be amazing to get original cassettes or reels!
Thanks everybody.

which seems to imply some sort of extensive band-edited/supervised tour tape, shot during perhaps SYs best period, with better audio than, say, the "blood on the beach" video.

It sounds awesome -- so, where is it?
