    It's always a special treat to get these in concert too.
    And so you see, I have come to doubt
    All that I once held as true
    I stand alone without beliefs
    The only truth I know is you.

    Easy choice for me here. Betterman is actually one of my least favorite PJ songs. Leatherman is just a fun b side but Nothingman...has totally kicked my ass since Vitalogy came out.

    Sorry, I was trying to be sarcastic. Leatherman just doesn't do it for me and is usually my bathroom/beer run song.

    yeah, sarcasm doesn't really come through on the net without some type of smiley/punctuation. when someone asks a question like this, I assume they are being sarcastic, but I also don't want to reply as a PJ elitest ("you don't know what LEATHERMAN IS??? SERIOUSLY???") in case the person really doesn't know.

    You must have bad luck if youve seen it enough times to make it your "usual" bathroom/beer run song. Haha.

    It was played 40 times when you count the 1998 and 2000 tour alone. If they went to those two tours I could see how that was possible but that was 18 years ago. The song rarely gets played now though with only 15 showings in the last decade.

    Yes, the majority of them (6) were back in the day, but since 2013 they have played it only 5 times, I've gotten it 4 out of those 5. Just my luck.

    However, I really like Man of the Hour but that was not a choice.

    Love Man of the hour too. Betterman is a really beautiful song...lovely melody, guitars, and poignant lyrics but the way it's done live the last years with the big singalongs has lessened it's musical impact for me. If your are at a show it's all good fun but it's one I prefer to hear a studio or an acoustic live version.
