Notes
Top-notch Nervous Wrecks show with Joe Mariencheck (bass), Paul Buchignani (drums), Ross Rice (piano), and Dan Baird (guitar).
Todd and the Wrecks are on a "new mission from God to saturate the world with all the great old arena rock clichés that you don't hear anymore." Todd follows this up with a good solid "It's great to be back in At-lan-tah!" to start off Horseshoe Lake.
Todd and Paul play an excellent version of Talking Seattle Grunge Rock Blues backed only with drums and harmonica complete with a handful of covers.
Todd tells a "be yourself" sort of story during I Believe You.
Near the end of Alright Guy, Todd does a pretty entertaining impression of Bruce Springsteen.
Variations
On Late Last Night:
"I don't wanna hear about this Lilith Fair Tour."
On Alright Guy:
"...new poster with all the Georgia Satellites naked and I was checkin' it out. Just then a friend of mine came through the door. She said she never pegged me for a Southern rocker before..."
"...it ain't like I'm going on television and biting off Evander Holyfield's ear."
