Barenaked On A Stick - Contents

Contents

The USB stick contained a variety of contents, all the audio of which had previously been released by the band. The 128 MB size forced low quality bitrates. Both factors strengthened the belief that the release was mainly of a test of the medium.

  • Seven "live favourites" in 112 kbit/s CBR MP3, directly taken from the live concerts as sold online (retaining the original track numbers, and long pauses at the end of encore tracks)

Famous quotes containing the word contents:

    “To be, contents his natural desire;
    He asks no Angel’s wing, no Seraph’s fire;
    But thinks, admitted to that equal sky,
    His faithful dog shall bear him company.”
    —Alexander Pope (1688–1744)

    “Conversation ... is like the table of contents of a dull book.... All the greatest subjects of human thought are proudly displayed in it. Listen to it for three minutes, and you ask yourself which is more striking, the emphasis of the speaker or his shocking ignorance.”
    —Stendhal [Marie Henri Beyle] (1783–1842)

    “How often we must remember the art of the surgeon, which, in replacing the broken bone, contents itself with releasing the parts from false position; they fly into place by the action of the muscles. On this art of nature all our arts rely.”
    —Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)
