Tripping Daisy Live – Get It On
Composition
Get It On was recorded in the summer of 1993 at Trees Dallas. The first two songs on Get It On are derived from the band's debut album Bill, whilst "It's Safe, It's Social" and the title track are new, original songs. The album's final song is a cover of Bad Religion's "We're Only Gonna Die".[1] Get It On was described as featuring a "harder rocking" sound in contrast to that of Bill.[3]

Augusto praised the EP as "fun filler", and believed that the release "shows further growth from this promising pop-punk quartet".[5]
