Notes:
-Before Binky MS "We're going to do another new song...can we have absolute silence please...ok whatever. We're going to do another new song and just because this song has a lot of kind of food analogies...can you understand what I'm saying? I will slow down. Just because this song has a lot of food analogies I have to say something and I have to say it right now: I've been here for two days, I've been coming here for many years, we've been coming to play here. Anyway, And I go to all the (?) restaurants in town and I've always had really good food and I've always had really good food in Buffalo. But, there's one thing in the world that I can't fucking stand and that is the smell of Buffalo chicken wings. I hate that! [someone chimes in 'and you better have a restroom nearby'] Before we get any further in our relationship tonight I just wanted to put that on the table and come clean with you. [mixed cheers and boos] That was very popular".
-Strange Currencies intro nobody want to be seen with you so you stay home and watch TV.
-Before MOTM MS "This is kind of extroardinary but it's a true story and if you want to believe it you can. When I was like 8 years old, I wanted to be an archaeologist and I thought that I would sit around in holes and I would dig. You kno, I'd have a bandana over my head, you know I'd sweat a lot it would e cool to find dinosaur bones. Well that didn't happen, but that's what I wanted to be. The one thing that I thought would be the worst thing in the world to be like at the age of 8, I knew that to be a stand-up comedian would be the most horiffic job ever. So it's strange that--we love you too. Guys that's like michael Jackson. Come on. So it's strange that not only between songs am I supposed to make you feel like I'm not aloof and (?). I'd rather just play the songs if it was all the same but anyway. So it's strange that not only do I stand here and make you laugh every now and then between dong, which I'm fine with and those guys hate, but our patron saint in life, as a group as R.E.M., out patron saint turned out to be a stand up comedian from the 1970's named Andy Kauffman and this song is about him".
-Country Feedback solo 1:15. MS also does a spoken word thing at the end of the verse, shortly before PB's solo. Just when you think the song couldn't be performed any better.
-Before Get Up MS "Hey Mike Mills [MM what?] What do you wanna do? Do you wanna go to sleep? [laughs maniacally] no. [MM] Get Up? [MS] tell 'em about the song. [MM] I like to sleep ok? Who doesn't? I slept through one too many band rehearsals and Michael had to write a song about it. here it is".
-French horn on Everybody Hurts
-Java starts off with MS proclaiming his love for coffee and Radioheads love of coffee. MS introduces the french horn player and apologizes for extending the anouncements eyond the song. He also declines an invitation to ody surf "Hey I just got out of the hospital. Forget it". He revisits his dislike of chicken wings "But I'll tell you whant man, if you want a really good tempe(?) burger there's no better place in the world then Buffalo New York. [MM} Tell you what, any wings he doesn't want, I'll eat".
Grade: C
-average sound but quite entertaining banter.
