Notes (from 5H):
Ed is wearing another Tivoli shirt, like the home-made one in 1992. The band is
in a very good mood and Ed is dancing a lot. Ed says, "Is it okay if I
speak English, because the only thing I know in Dutch is how to order pot
in a cafe. It is nice to be back and thanks for having us. It is much more
beautiful then I remember it. [smiles] It is also nice to be out of
America for the last couples of weeks ... in America what we do for fun,
because we have some kind of advanced culture ... [the crowd boos, Ed
smiles] so we have some very futuristic ways of handling our
overpopulation problem and that is we give each other guns and kill one
another - because it is fucking fun! [Ed makes a shoot sound]. Anyway,
here are a couple of songs about killing one another. This is called
'Rival.'"
Ed dedicates 'Light Years' to Diane Muus from Sony Music. (She died in
1997 at an age of 33 and knew the band very well.) "So that was about a
friend who is fucking up and there is nothing you can do about it! And you
just watch'em go down down down. And then, other times you have got
friends that don't fuck up at all and are great people. And then you just
lose them for some reason. They are of the planet and you never had a
chance to say goodbye. I only mention this because there was a person we
used to know here and that was Diane and ah, we never got a chance to say
goodbye. This is goodbye!'
Before "Fucking Up,' he is telling the crowd that Gomez will play in the
tent next to center stage and that Moby is coming later. He says,
"I've been told that there is another Ed (Ed Kowalczyk from Live) walking
around here, but I've been told that I give better Ed than he
does" [smiling]. He smashes two tambourines with his head during 'Fuckin'
Up' and tosses one to the crowd, and takes photos of the crowd at the end
of the song. Later he's smiling and says, "Ha, we're easy
... sometimes" likely referring to the fact that they do an encore for a
festival. He asks, "Hey, Brett. Are you there? Can you hear me? Do you
have the tape from last night?" Brett responds through the PA and says the
tape is probably on the bus. Ed rants about the tape as he needs it
because they want to leave right after the show. "Well, if he had the tape
I would tell you to pass me over there, so I could get the tape and back
again to the stage ... I think I can trust you guys to do that. But oh
well ... as you don't have the tape maybe next time. Oh, there is no next
time! Oh, well. This song is called 'Black.' Say hello to all my friends
in Utrecht."
The last 35 minutes of this show was broadcast on Dutch national TV
('Insignificance through Leaving Here' and an interview with Stone and
Jeff). Dutch FM radio broadcast 'MFC' through 'Black' and featured an
interview with Mike.
