Notes
A local newspaper had mistakenly misspelled Todd's name in a preview article printed the day before this show. As Todd introduced himself, he did so under the name given in the article: "My name is Tom Snider."
Early in the show, an audience member heckles Todd who is clearly irritated. He calmly responds: "There's gotta be someplace else to get attention." Eventually the heckler bought Todd a Corona and Todd led the crowd in a favorite toast: "Here's to the duck that swum a lake and never lost a feather...this time next year may we all be together!"
Overall, a fun crowd at this show -- especially the guy who keeps yelling "I'm happy to be here!!!" towards the end of the show (not as a request).
Variations
On Sideshow Blues:
"It's so hard to kick the door down when you ain't wearin' no shoes."
"Out in the coffee house with all you freaks and musicians."
On Alright Guy:
"I had that new book with all those pictures of Jimmy Buffett naked..."
On Doublewide Blues:
"I don't get out much since O.J.'s been on."
