The soundcheck/rehearsal was taped.
Notes
- The show was filmed in Studio 8H.
- At the dress rehearsal on the night of the show, the band ran through the two songs in front of a live audience.
- Because of the band kissing during the live end-of-show credits, the credits were retaped. Kurt wasn't present at the retaping. All rebroadcasts use the retaped credits.
