    QUOTES

    - Stereo Sanctity
    T: "Thanks. Am I too loud? I'm really loud. I'm not? This song is called 'The Wonder'. Actually, believe it or not, this song was written about DC, walking around when we first came here, around the buildings, that you guys probably take for granted. I don't even know the name of em, but it was a wonder."
    - The Wonder
    T: "We're gonna..ha...we're gonna lay a new one on ya. We got a bunch of new ones. Just like the old ones. Except for they're newer. This one's called 'Cinderella's Big Score'. Soundtrack to the movie."
    - Cinderella's Big Score
    K: "Susanne, could we have a little more light on the stage? We can't do much about the vocals."
    T: "Need a light?"
    K: "Just pretend this is 1965."
    L: "Check. This is another new song, this is called 'Mote'."
    T: "It was, um, it was tuned backwards! [laughs]"
    L: "Cool. He says 'play it backwards'."
    - Mote
    T: "Special message! If anybody's parked in the orchestra parking lot, they're towing cars out of there. So, you might want to run out there, try to reason with them. This song is called 'Dirty Boots', if you know what I mean."
    - Dirty Boots [false start]
    K: "Susanne, can you keep the lights up?"
    T: "Wicked! That's from the new album. [laughs] The new album's on a corporate label, it's what we want."
    L: "Start it over!"

    L: "I think Fugazi already did 'Free Bird'. Don't you wanna play?"
    - Catholic Block
    T: "And now, for another new one, YES! [laughs] I'm ready to tackle it! Where'd Lee go? Oh! This song is called 'I Am Animal, the Fuck-Priest'!"
    - Mary-Christ
    - Kool Thing
    K: "Thanks."
    T: "What? You wanna do two or one? Two more or one more? You wanna hear the new Cher tune? Do you wanna hear it dude?"

    - 'Cross the Breeze
