    I heard a more recent version and thought they really fucked the ending and turned it a little too sappy, new age'y

    RM is so amazing :o Musically, that outro?! :o Geez... i used to listen to this like every morning in high school .. Red mosquito in columbia was seriously the shining star of the show (no code wouldn't be the same without it ) not to mention that was just a damn good show overall *melts* If only all songs could be as cool as Red mosquito :D

    Agreed. If this is true, I'm so glad that I was in Columbia to hear it.

    I assumed this was why this old thread got resurrected this morning, but I don't know. Interested to see what part Ben sang. Or did Ben play guitar?

    I heard Eddie won't play the song anymore since Ament started calling him Ed Mosquito after seeing him come out of the cold water after surfing.

    Yeah that's why I dug it back up. :)
    I don't think Ben sang, he played slide guitar.
    Looks/sounds effing amazing.

    Well for my money, if we get no red mosquito, I would love for No Way, ;)

    Just checked the band's song list with the "Number of Times Played" stats . . .

    The 4 songs off of albums (including Lost Dogs) that have been played THE LEAST?

      Fatal No Way Push Me Pull Me Undone


    All with 3 plays each. Of these . . . No Way has been on the shelf the longest. Last played on The Yield Tour, at the Virginia Beach Amphitheatre on September 7, 1998. it's been almost 11 years since they played it live!!!!

    So all that to say, don't hold your breath for it to be played anytime soon . .. why would they suddenly break it our now? Not that I don't hope they do, but the stats aren't in our favour.

    Check out the last couple of setlists before Salt Lake City. They've just recently resurrected it so they have broken it out - only a few days ago now!!!

    I loooove Red Mosquito! :D I think maybe I know why they don't play it much. I've seen them fuck up that song more than once. They're human beings, they mistakes, but I think they may have a "thing" with that song. Just a possibility.

    As for No Way, they actually played it in Seattle, it was awesome to hear again after so many years ;) Someone also mentioned Breath,I wish they played it more, it's one of my favorites
    Oh, if I knew where it was, I would take you there, but there's much more than this.
    Ooooh. Whoooa, much more than this. Woooh see the world. Much more than... Oooh, much more than.. Why?

    Breath has been played within the last two or three shows, too!
