    QUOTES

    T: "So who's here? Should I pass the mic? Everybody state your name and age. Do we have a set list? Is Kim here? Well, uh, my name is Thurston, that's Lee, and Jim, and Steve. This is Kim. I'm gonna take my watch off."
    L: "Okay. I'll do the same, if you are. That way we'll be free of time."
    T: "Yeah, it's a human construct we'd rather not subscribe to. But for the sake of responsibility...we adhere to certain agreements. I have to, I uh...sliced open my, uh, my index finger last night, so I'm a little compromised, I'm gonna play with...this finger...what's it called? The dutch finger? Steve is getting saucy...Is my amp too loud, Kim, behind you?"

    T: "Thanks! Thank you very much. Okay, I was told there was a Don Cherry record on the wall here, for $200. And I was very curious, what could that be? Which one is it? Someone here has the knowledge. The young man with the brushcut and the white T-shirt. This is for the kid on the shoulders."
    K: "This is called 'Plastic Sun'."

    K: "Thank you!"
    L: "Yeah, that's right...this is the first place Jim ever played with us! That was that start of the long..."
    T: "YEAH!!!!! Sorry [laughs] sorry...I get excited! [laughter] Information...OK! This is for all the CDs out there that are under the price of the $13.99."
    J: "And over a hundred."
    T: "And over a hundred! Actually, the only really good CDs are those that are priced like $10.99, and those that are priced like $300 and up. On that note, this song is entitled 'Disconnection Notice'."
