Show Notes: This show featured the debut of Rats In The Sky. Mars For the Rich was dedicated to Joey's friend Laura from high school who moved to Portland, Maine. This Thing contained an Incredible (M Beat) quote. I'm Not In Your Mind contained Witchcraft teases. Following Le Risque, Joey said that the song should be in Happy Gilmore 2. Following Let Me Mend The Past, Ambrose quoted I'd Rather Go Blind (Etta James). Before The Dripping Tap, Joey shouted out opener Geese. The song itself was dedicated to Bill Cavanagh and contained two Antarctica vocal jams with some of the lyrics changed to "Portland, Maine" and to being about Stu swimming in the lake nearby (some of The Dripping Tap lyrics were changed to this as well) and Sea of Trees, Head On/Pill, Witchcraft, and Alter Me teases, a Surfin' Safari (The Beach Boys) quote, as well as Joey teasing 46 & 2 (Tool) for a large portion of the song. Stu was crowdsurfed to the nearby river and back during The Dripping Tap.
