Comments:

Touring versions from Foggy G's We're Only In It For The Touring:

1978
Yet another holiday treat, performed several times during the Halloween run, and sporadically throughout the tour. Essentially performed as on YCDTOSA Volume VI, accounting for obvious differences in instrumentation.
1981
Essentially performed as on YCDTOSA Volume VI.
1982
Essentially performed as on YCDTOSA V. An absolutely perfect way to end (or in one unusually sweet instance, open) a show.
1988
Essentially performed as on MAJNH. The silly cartoon-like ending is taken from a 1980 "Hawaiian Punch" commercial which starred everybody's favorite Mormons, the Osmonds.

Conceptual Continuity:

200 Motels
