9 covers

H.Chinaski

I'd love to see them cover some Dinosaur Jr. or Stooges with J. Mascis at Fenway. To the haters they can play whatever the fuck they want and most of us will love all of it.

I dont really mind the covers
what i do mind is that the second encore is very ten heavy
rather than always ending the encore with porch
try ending it with parting ways
and most of the crowd edpecially US are long time fans
they do know most of the songs post binaural

Did night 2 feel different? 
It seems to have been received much better..
But the amount of covers was the same.. And the amount of songs from the last 20 years was again really low.. (just 3 songs from binaural, riot act, avocado, bs and lb combined +can't deny)

Btw I would've gladly taken both sets..! Just curious as to how the nights differed in peoples minds..

I can't believe they didn't play 4 hours and then stay after the show for photos and signatures. WTF

I agree.. 

it looked awesome, and it sounded fucking awesome too. whilst I do not necessarily agree with the complaints about cover songs, I do get it. my thing is, who else are we gonna go watch that CONSISTENTLY throw on an awesome catalog mix every single night?

A cover has been a highlight for me at several shows I've attended! I 

Would love some more love for the second half of PJ's own records though..

Um, so they only played two songs from Ten during last night's 2nd encore and only played 1 song from Ten during Seattle N.1 during the 2nd encore.  Neither encore ended with Porch.  Just saying.

One way this could go:

Person 1: looking at the set list, it seems like too many cover songs. I’d like to see them play more originals especially from later albums, or some deeper cuts from yield or no code.

Person 2: Really? I would just be glad to be there. They can play whatever they like. 

Person 1: oh, yeah! It would have been great to be there. It just seems to me with as large as their catalogue is, they could play more of their stuff. 

Person 2: yea, but a lot of those songs PJ has been playing for a long time, so much so that there basically their songs.

Person 1: they’re still cover songs though. 

Person 2: yes, technically they are, but I still think they are pretty close to originals.

Person 1: I get that, they have played several for over 20 years. However, that also speaks to my greater point of hearing some more songs from later albums. A lot of those quasi-covers could be swapped out to freshen things up. 

Person 3: (had been overheating) well it was only night one. Maybe night 2 is when they’ll play some rarer stuff.

Person 1: that’s fair. 

Person 2: and, it still would have been awesome to be there either way, right?

Person 1: fuck yeah! 

Possible endings that played in my mind:
1. nbc star: the more you know 2. Jumping high five; freeze frame; saved by the bell end credit music 3. beer bottle clink, sharp head nod, and deep gulp 4. close up of both faces with a deeper understanding of the other; blackout; FIN in white letters 5. side hug filmed from behind. End credits with Aaron Lewis’ cover of black playing.

 post credit scene - 2 days later: close up
Person 3: See..., told ya... black out
