[edit] Miscellanea
- The sounds of a ping pong game can be heard during the outro of "Airport Song." A Guster fan tradition involves throwing ping pong balls onstage during this part of the song when played live.
- There are two versions of the album. The original, rare, independently-released version which features the hidden song "Melanie" before the first song and the one released on Hybrid/Sire Records in which the hidden song is the 11th track on the album.
- Due to the limited budget of the album, no b-sides were recorded besides a song called "Happy Birthday Ken" which was a gift to Ken Goldman, who had housed the band in California when they were recording.
- "Airport Song" received modest radio airplay, peaking at #35 on the Billboard Modern Rock Chart.
