    I'm a bit partial to the Gorge 2005 version myself... but I was there on my birthday watching the sun drop...  

    That concert was perfection

    I am bias becuase I was there but hearing the HTI riff right after Pendulum in Baltimore was goosebump inducing. I also recall being flawless so it gets my vote.

    Only time I've heard it live. Not represented too well with shitty camera/phone tech back then...but hey, you get the idea.

    Only played 37 times. What a gem. I have no clue why songs like these are so underplayed.

    I didn't realize it has only been played 37 times.  That is crazy. Such a great song.  I read an article where stone was saying it's a tough song to play/remember so I'm guessing that has something to do with it being so rare.

    Based on this thread it seems like they nail it every time they play it.

    Grand Rapids '06 was my favorite. They followed it up with the best Crazy Mary and the best Alive I've ever heard. 

    That was a truly magical night.

    I ve been lucky enough to see this song five times live and they have all been amazing. Definitely another song that needs to be in the set list more.

    You're not kidding. Aside from anything related to being a father, The Vic was the best night of my life.
