Notes
FM->DAT (thanks Rich!)->CDR. Thanks to Kenneth for setlist. Lyrics
apparently retrieved from the Internet for some songs ( James in
Simpsons mode before "Transfusion": "Internet, eh?").
The usual goofy all-request session...
- "Tighten Up" is hilarious (a collective, "ugh, that was horrible..." afterward).
- "Route 66" is sung by a little girl on the phone, unbelievably cute.
- "Billy Don't Be A Hero" is hysterical: sung by DJ Gaylord Fields for a $1000 pledge. He sounds like the guy from Killdozer...
- Georgia sings "Getting Older" with James on the chorus, very nice.
- Really nice "God's Children".
