| Limburg This is a weird one.. The lyrics, which are often hard to understand, are about the Dutch province Limburg, but the song is completely sung and played in Arabian style. It features a girl singing the main lyrics and a men's choir singing the chorus. The music is based on a busy drum computer-like rhythm and many layered Arabian synth melodies. Lyrics include the lines 'Eikenhout is eikenhout. eikenhout is hout' (Oakwood is oakwood. Oakwood is wood) and 'Limburg mijn Vaderland' (Limburg is my Fatherland). Even though the synths sound like Robert Jan, if it wasn't on a tape full of other Nits demos I wouldn't think this was actually a Nits song.. | Demo Probably 1980's | Dennis 05.03.2005 | download (3241 kb) |
| Henk Hofstede - Henrik Johänsen Improvisation (live 2004) At each of his solo concerts Henk did an imporvisation in the style of Henrik Johänsen (buy the Henrik Johänsen album at http://www.nits.nl). The lyrics were from the restaurant section of a Dutch-Swedish holiday dictionary. | Den Bosch 03.11.2004 | Dennis Versteeg 01.09.2006 | download (3077 kb) |
| Tables And Chairs (live Kilo Tour) The Kilo our sometimes featured a version of Tables And Chairs. It's short, but nice to hear anyway... | Den Bosch 13.12.1983 | Dennis Versteeg 21.08.2006 | download (2068 kb) |
| Henk Hofstede - Imagine Recorded during Henk's solo tour of 2004-2005. Henk decided on the morning of the concert to play this song and downloaded the lyrics from the internet. The version is not perfect, but it's great to hear Henk sing this classic John Lennon song. | Den Bosch 03.11.2004 | Dennis 12.04.2005 | download (4202 kb) |
| Henk, Arwen & Titia – Crime & Punishment Arwen and Titia were both in Den Bosch in on the day Henk had his solo performance there. They met and decided to do one song together. Henk dedicated it to Theo van Gogh, the Dutch movie maker who was murdered the day before almost right in front of Henk's house in Amsterdam. This song definitely is a flash-back to Wool-period Nits! Audience recording. | Den Bosch 03.11.2004 | Dennis 16.11.2004 | download (4512 kb) |
| Stips – Walter And Conny Recorded during Robert Jan's 1999 Greyhound Tour. He played a few older songs, including this hectic version of this Nits classic. His band consisted of Mark Boon on electric guitar, Judith Sijp on cello and Robert Jan himself on keyboards and drum machines. A unique combination of instruments! Audience recording. | Den Bosch 19.01.1999 | Dennis 14.11.2004 | download (4731 kb) |
| I Don't Really Know This often was the last song during concerts of the Kilo Tour. I think it's an unreleased Nits tune. During the Kilo period they recorded several uptempo songs, some of those were rearranged to slower versions for the album and some remained unreleased, this is probably one of the unreleased ones. The title is uncertain. | Den Bosch 13.12.1983 | Dennis 10.11.2004 | download (3967 kb) |
| Henk Hofstede – Two Skaters This was recorded very recently during Henk's solo-tour. This is an amazing piano-version of Two Skaters, one of the many stripped down Nits songs he plays in this tour. If you have a chance go see him before the tour ends in may 2005! Audience recording. | Den Bosch 03.11.2004 | Dennis 08.11.2004 | download (4020 kb) |
| Nits & Fay Lovski – Tons Of Ink Dutch singer Fay Lovski guested during a couple of songs at the Den Bosch concert in 1983. This is a good example of one of the songs she helped out with. | Den Bosch 15.06.1983 | Dennis 07.11.2004 | download (3871 kb) |
| Cabins (mini version) A lovely small version of Cabins that was played as a request during a Giant Normal Dwarf concert. Audience recording. | Den Haag 10.11.1990 | Dennis Versteeg 13.01.2007 | download (1567 kb) |
| Henk Hofstede & Robert Jan Stips - Cars And Cars This is a unique guitar and piano duo-version of Cars And Cars, recorded at a solo concert by Henk where Robert Jan guested on this song. | Den Haag 31.03.2005 | Dennis Versteeg 05.12.2006 | download (5668 kb) |
| Stips – Medley This was recorded during Robert Jan Stips' first solo tour following the Egotrip album. He played songs from all over his career and this medley combines three: Instead Of.. (from dAdAdA), Tomorrow Is Another Day (from U.P.) and Cars And Cars (from Ting). His band consisted of Martin Bakker on bass and Roy Bakker on drums.

| Heaven At the end of the Nest Tour this Talking Heads cover was regularly played. Audience recording. | Den Haag 10.05.1996 | Dennis 09.10.2004 | download (4193 kb) |
| Avec Une Aile Cassée In 1995 Nits recorded a French version of Broken Wing with French singer Kent. This was released in France on single and on the Nest album. At a live radio concert in the Netherlands they played this version (without Kent). It's not only rare because it's a french version, it's also one of the few times they played the song in a fast version. Later they rearranged it with slower music and eventually dropped the song completely from cocnerts, because they were unhappy with that version as well in the end. | Denk Aan Henk 13.10.1995 | Dennis 27.09.2004 | download (3859 kb) |

| The One I Love / Norwegian Wood When Henk wondered aloud which song they were playing next, it was the oportunity for the audience to shout requests. Henk picked up on two of the titles, and they merged them seamlessly into one beautiful impromptu. | Drachten 28.02.2006 | Ria Heeringa 03.04.2006 | download (2928 kb) |
| Crime & Punishment (Rehearsal 2004) Recorded in a dressing room before a concert. This was broadcast in a documentary on Dutch TV. The song itself was actually never performed live during this tour. | Dressing Room | Dennis Versteeg 16.09.2006 | download (4314 kb) |
