Barenaked Ladies held a “Double Dipper” set Sunday, January 27, 2008, during Ships and Dip III for fans who were on the cruise for the second time (S&D III was actually the second cruise, not the third). During the set, BNL performed their songs picked randomly from a bucket of requests provided by fans, some of which they hadn’t sung for years. Above, Steven Page and Ed Robertson get some help from a lyric book, provided by one of the fans. They played everything that was pulled (“F@%k it, it’s in the bucket!”), with the exception of “One Week.” Page said something to the effect of “I don’t come on the cruise to play ‘One Week.’” Fans agreed.
