    besides OTE, does the band have any finished songs they've played live that they have not officially released from the studio? (not counting improvs)

    Plenty of covers, obviously. There are a few that they could make their own nicely.
    I can't think of any other original ones though.
    sorry...meant originals.

    Last Soldier from the Riot Act sessions

    just a brilliant song that I think Mike needs to plea for the band to bring back as well :)

    I guess Falling Down would make that list. Or is that considered an improv?

    Awful, awful, poorly structured mess of a song. I'd be happy if I never heard it again.

    Genuinely one of my least favourite things they've ever put together

    Heard it twice (first and second time played). Was cool hearing a song for the first time but other than that the song did nothing for me. Don't understand why people rave on about it being a great song when it's just average, can see why they left it off the album

    Bee Girl is on Lost Dogs.
    Words seem so out of place is an improv, no?

    Well it was, but it was the live version. No studio version of that one. But i thought i heard ed once say that was an improv. Could be wrong tho.

    I honestly do not see what is so great about this song. For one Eddie does not appear to have finalized lyrics, up to his standard. Sounds like he has a rough draft...
    The song needs more groove on the drum side. I like Cameron but his drumming sounds so square sometimes - like lacks rhythm.
    The Solo/Jam Part Sounds A Little Out Of Context WUTH The Rest Of The Song, At points.
    I actually like the last bit, sounds the grooviest. Would like them to just take that part and build a song around that.
    Overall just needs something different - feels like a song that was never finished.

    Last Soldier from the Riot Act sessions

    Love the song! Still don't understand why they never play it live at least. Think it's played twice, two days in a row at bridge school or something.

    It would be the best song of riot act imo!

    I think Ed does have finished lyrics to this. I remember reading an Avocado preview in Rolling Stone and Jeff was talking about a Peter Gabriel ish type song Ed wrote they were all excited about called of the Earth.

    Weird. It's genuinely one of my favorite things they've ever done. Love me some Of The Earth! Really hope for a studio version someday.

    I also definitely think it's more on the "big mess" side of things, as songs go. I would not really want to hear it live, let alone hear it on an album.

    It was my favorite of the night in Denver. It is a total fucking jam live.

    I think I've only ever heard that one live version, I think from the first time they played it, in 2010 was it?? I'll check out the Denver version. Maybe they've improved upon it in the last few years.

    Yeah, I thought it was tighter. Try with headphones and turn it up.
