==History==
The EP is a collection of some of the band's earliest songs that they were still playing live at the time. It was recorded in two hours on July 5, 1990, at Six Feet Under in [[Minneapolis]] while the band was on a brief break from their summer tour,<ref>[http://www.greendayauthority.com/TheBand/articles/guitarlegends/page8.jpg Green Day: The Complete History, Guitar Legends] {{Webarchive|url=https://web.archive.org/web/20060927120256/http://www.greendayauthority.com/TheBand/articles/guitarlegends/page8.jpg |date=2006-09-27 }}.
