(2989 kb)Sampler Demo #3
This comes from a tape on which there are several recordings that were probably made to try out a new keyboard sampler. This demo is a good example of how this tape sounds. Mostly it's repetitive noises over a simple drum pattern. Not really easy listening...Demo, probably 1986/7 Dennis

Usually in the HAT Tour the intro to Nescio consisted of Henk singing a part of the English verse over a piano backing, as can be heard on URK. In this case he sang a bit of Simon & Garfunkel's song Scarborough Fair.Alkmaar

(3952 kb)Skateboard Boy
This song was written and recorded circa 1977-1978 by the Nits. It was
never put on an album, but it was played live a lot in the late '70s.
During the Nits (Debut Album) Tour of 1977-1979 they played it similar to
the studio version. During the 1979-1980 Tent Tour the song lost its
lyrics and it was played as an instrumental. The next incarnation of the
song was in 1980 on a demo version of Different Kitchen of New Flat, where
the music formed the basis of this song. Later on they scrapped that and
wrote new music for the song, but the rhythm is still very similar to
Skateboard Boy.
Then it was silent for 20 years for this song, until coverband LICE dug it
up and played it on November 19th 2000 at Greatest Nits INC, much to the
surprise of everyone in the audience (on the official website you can hear
the LICE version in the Mailbox section). Only a handful of people were
familiar with this song!
