Notes From Ralph

The Residents have been in San Francisco making records for about 12 years, but they've never performed until now. A couple of reasons behind that. There was a synthesizer invented called the Emulator, which was invented a couple of years ago and allowed The Residents to perform all of their music live. Until now, they had not been able to do that because the music is very difficult to do live. They had been very used to the studio. I also believe they were just ready for a little trip out of San Francisco to go to Europe to see things they'd never seen before.

"Utrecht--out of Germany and into Holland, land of pretty people, pretty flowers and good weather again. The theatre, the Musicentre, was an elegantly modern monster, grey concrete on the outside and red soft in the centre, and existing in complete contrast to the concept of quaint, an idea that could have originated in the charming shops and canals of the town itself. For a change, even the hotel was nice and only 200-300 yards from the theatre."
