Porno For Pyros
Mountain Song
Notes: Due mainly to a rowdy crowd, it takes about 8 minutes before the band
starts playing. It was the band's first show since Woodstock '94. "Porpoise
Head" has some additional backing vocals, I assume from Pete. It's also kinda
the first live performance of "Good God's Urge".. though the "Urge" part was
played at Woodstock. I believe it's the first time Porno played "Mountain Song"
(unfortunately plagued by technical difficulties).. They played it a bunch in
'96, so it doesn't really seem like a big deal anymore, but at the time it was
huge!

interview and live clips
Notes: Mike Watt (briefly) and Perry talk to Much Music, Canadian TV. Some
interesting stuff, like about all the sex he had in the 80s. It's interspersed
with live clips, presumably from the band's Edenfest performance. I believe the
source trader for this recording put a mic up to the TV speaker instead of
properly transferring the audio, so the quality isn't great.

Mountain Song
Notes: Perry mentions he broke his ankle last time he played at the venue (with
Jane's in 1988). They delight the crowd by closing the show with a block of
Jane's tunes.. pretty much unheard of at a P4P show at the time. Before "I Would
For You", Perry says, "Well, I haven't done this song in a couple of years, but
I'm in a good mood."
