* Just before Satisfaction Rudy, Legends owner, secretly handed out mini Snickers and Mounds with instructions to adorn the band with the tasty treats. At the end of Satisfaction candy bars flew from the crowd covering the stage in Snickers & Mounds!
** first time performed in public.
*** Round 2 , Marty vs. Harvey Canter (Sea of Green). Odds were Marty 1:4; Harvey 3:1. Harvey wins, putting the Belly Bucking title on the West coast for the first time.
**** Dana wearing the Ronnie Reagan mask.

Enc: Big Bottom****
* conclusion from Bong Hits started on 8/7/98
** Round 3, Harvey, the west coast champ, takes on the east coast and world champ, Big Daddy. Odds were Big Daddy 1:5 and Harvey 4:1. Harvey took the early rounds, and appeared the new world champ, when Barry Smolin came to the rescue with Seaweed spinach (from the Sea Of Green, no doubt :-) which brought new strength to Big Daddy, who proceeded to successfully defend his title and bring the World Belly-Bucking championship back home to the East coast.
*** Max teased the riff from the Sea Of Green song "Dumb Intelligence" during the spacy opening to "Blackberry Brandy" and said, "Now we're going to do a Sea of Green cover."
**** Dana in Reagan masked & stripped down to his boxers.
