Notes for this episode:

\\n

We\'re still working out some issues with the audio clips, some of which (My Bloody Valentine and Pavement in particular) didn\'t come out as well as we\'d hoped. 

\\n

Actually it was Stone Temple Pilots not the Smashing Pumpkins who were drinking champagne and saying "the Pavement guy would have a field day with this."
