Jul 20, 2008 - I doubt this is from the Hacienda-I don't think it opened until 1983 when BP had split up.

Rentbook2u Says:

Jul 20, 2008 - The Birthday Party did indeed play the Hacienda....twice to my knowledge. I'm not sure when the Hacienda opened but the Party played there in 1982 and 1983.I saw them once...at Leeds Poly, 1982. The greatest gig I've ever been to.

Jul 20, 2008 - I'm pretty sure the Haçienda opened in 82 and I went to a Birthday Party gig there in Feb or March 83, possibly this gig.
