remarks: "It's not just us tonight, we're on the radio. I just thought I'd
warn you, you know, if you, if you're s'posed to be at your friend's house
spending the night, you weren't allowed to come, don't get your voice on the
radio, we don't want you to get in trouble. Ah fuck it, get in trouble!"
Later he says, "Fine bunch of mutants we got here We're all mutants up here,
too." 'Jeremy' and 'Even Flow' are both sporting a new intros. Ed notes the
full moon: "It's really too bad they couldn't open the roof in this place
cuz there's a fuckin full moon out there that we're missing ... so if someone's
out there listening to us in their car, stick your head out the window.. at
home, go to the windows. Things happen in a full moon, good things, bad things,
things happen." Ed gives his list of N.W. words/phrases. Reference is made
to the poor security the previous night ("... we got the guys from last
night the fuck outta here"). Ed acknowledges his wife, Beth: "She's
back home, so it's not as if she's going to hear this on the radio, but it's me
and Beth's 129 month anniversary today. And I'm going to sing the first line of
this famous New Zealand song. This is for her. 'I've got you, and that's all I
want.' [sings a couple bars of the Split Enz, 'I Got You'].
That's for her. This one's for you." (leading to 'Better Man'). Dave Grohl
joins PJ for 'RitFW.'
