==Notes==
* The character was erroneously referred to as "Kate Monster" in a profile on CTW.org.CTW.org: R.E.M. Rocks Sesame Street! (archive link) Ironically, D'Abruzzo would go on to play a character named Kate Monster in Avenue Q.
* On Songs from the Street: 35 Years of Music, the character is credited as "Muppet Rocker."
