a this and that production.
do not sell this recording.
share freely losslessly and gaplessly.
this time you don't have to pick which door you want.
just one click, and you get all five quadruple platinum doors.
Take that, Monty Hall, Wayne Grady and Jim Morrison.

notes:
this was going to include these "bonus tracks"
because the radio show was just an hour,
the band was bigger than Mt. Everest at this time
and these are all TV appearances during their debut tour,
and to fill up a CD, although since there are
fewer and fewer folks listening to CD's any more,
and all these performances have some unique quirks to them,
I decided to leave all of these in here since they're good ones
and all from master audio tapes of the TV broadcasts.
I thought the band sounded a little nervous or trepid in the TV
appearances, except in the billboard awards and the second
Tonight show appearance, they sounded inspired and fired up.
they sounded very comfortable and enthusiastic in the radio show.
this band went from no name to grammy awards faster than the police or U2
or elvis costello or anyone in quite awhile in the world of rock.
a year before this, nobody had heard of them, but by this time
there was no escaping their "kryptonite" and "loser" on the radio.
the Spin Doctors just had a pocket full of kryptonite.
3 doors down had a fortress of it, and in 2013, they're still a big act
and quite active in the American rock touring circuit, having
followed up this tour with several more albums and tours since then,
including several more big hit songs.
