19990409: UVM Slade Hall: Burlington, VT
Notes: I'll never forget the dude who picked up me and my friend as we hitched it to Burlington from Middlebury. Unreal show, havn't seen a more intimate and better show from the Slip until last year's boat show around NYC. If my memory serves me well i recall a sick Alsoa to end the first set, a Yellow Medicine somewhere in the show, and a Honey Melon towards the end of the evening which was dedicated to the guy who kept yellin for it throughout the entire night. Nothing like the environmental house at UVM. [tom - tcsajko at yahoo.com ]

20030725: Lupo's Heartbreak Hotel: Providence, RI
Notes: ! "BAM impersonators" -- At the beginning of the show (before set one), Sam Leonard, John ??? and Tim Lanterman (SJT) came out dressed as Brad, Marc and Andrew (respectively--beards, clothing, etc.). The lights were dim, so folks didn't notice. Many of the long-time Slip fans were fooled by this point, and SJT played Honey Melon! extremely ("surprisingly") well, catching the audience off-guard. The Slip then appeared and began posing, which cracked up the audience. Before Yellow Med., Brad said they had been playing a lot of "new songs" and that they were going to play an older one. Tim came out during Happy Snails and played the maracas while Andrew played the PVC pipes. During The Slip's 'Honey Melon' E:, SJT came out on stage and did their version of the Slip's posing from earlier. [Cleantone, unknown, Sammy, Phrazz - Saturday, July 26, 2003 at 15:04 - 19:00 ] % new vocal tune in the middle? [BRAD BARR: ^ I just wanted to let you guys know, the song that came out at the end of Sorry that night, the one you thought might have been by Built to Spill, is a song I wrote years ago for my Uncle Ted, who passed away("As a token of my appreciation/so you can verify/that nothing in this life you did in vein/to that I'll testify........"). I call it "In Life You Were an Ocean(In Death You Are the Rain)". For the record, the only BTS songs we've played have been "Else", "Carry The Zero"(not to be confused with "The Zeroes", aka "Children of December", aka "Children of December", aka "Birthdays"), and a slight tease of( I forget the name)"We're special in other ways", at the acoustic show at Helsinki, also at the end of Sorry. Any questions, let me know. Kewl. Out..... [ brad - Mon Aug 18 2003
