The song is called Win-Win Situation, a reject from the Henhouse record. There's a quote somewhere about how that song eventually morphed into 700 Ft Ceiling, despite the two songs sounding nothing alike. Robbie said that, somewhere on the old Henhouse version of the thehip.com, I think.

I have both full versions of the Ginos and Fox Theatre show but they're in mp3 format. Hopefully there's a lossless version out there somewhere. Actually, I'm not convinced that Fox Theatre is full, because for some reason I remember hearing Titanic Terrarium on a boot of that show before.

I could be wrong. Send me a pm if you'd like the mp3s (although trading as mp3s isn't the coolest thing to do, but when nothing can be done...)

Cheers

Pat

"We have this cool song Win Win Win Situation which has never made the final hurdle to a place on one of our records. Everyone liked the tune and it hung around for a long, long time. Once you realize a song may not ever get on a record you have to decide what to do about it. What we tend to do is start exploding it. You stick a bomb in it and you look for the most interesting pieces. You twist them around, try to reassemble it, change the rhythm of it or change the chords a bit here and there. Fooling around with the song may inspire someone to play a different lick and re-energize the tune. 700 Ft. Ceiling came out of mucking around with Win Win Win Situation even though they don't sound alike at all."

With all this talk about Win Win Situation - I decided to make a dowload page.
