Enclosed Notes:
Recorded live at 'Jan-Douwe Kroeske's 2 Meter Sessie' for VARA Radio, NOB Audiostudio 1, Hilversum, The Netherlands, 5 March 1994
In 1994 the '2 Meter Sessies' was a radio-only show, airing on Dutch VARA Radio and presented by Jan-Douwe Kroeske (height: 2 meter), where artists/bands could do a alternate live in-studio performance without audience. Tool chose to do a loud-louder-loudest performance (notice the amp-noise!) without any alterations. None of these tracks are officially released. In 1994 only 'Sober' was broadcast.
At that time of recording this session, there were no television broadcasts of the '2 Meter Sessies', so it's very plausible that this performance is not filmed.
In 2001, Jan-Douwe Kroeske, now on Dutch KinkFM Radio, had to do some serious searching for the original DAT-recording after massive requests by Dutch Tool-adepts. This resulted in broadcasting the complete session twice; the first broadcast had some annoying radio station ID's that spoiled the track intros/outros, the second broadcast didn't have any radio station ID's. So the latter was used for these files.
