Seriously, two shows in a row without Corduroy. I say we start a sign campaign.


:D:D:D

EDIT: Holy crap! Now it's three shows in a row. Corduroy is the new Push Me, Pull Me

    gee 5 shows coming up....i wonder if i'll see it? ;)
  • slightofjeffslightofjeff Posts: 7,762
    If you have been to all three shows since Bspacer came out, you have seen Johnny Guitar three times as many times as Corduroy.

    Hell, you've seen No Way just as many times as Corduroy.

    Who woulda thought?

    Bring it back!!!!!

    I'm glad I'm not the only one who could listen to Corduroy every show. I sometimes skip Evenflow, Jeremy and Betterman cuz I 've heard them so much, but I can never get enough of Corduroy.

    I will NEVER get sick of corduroy live. The way Matt plays it and those fills he does are just amazing. Ed still sounds amazing on it too. Oh and mikes solo haha

    Maybe Ed's giving Mike a break from it. He did say it was his least favorite song to play live. :lol:

    wow that's odd that they haven't played Corduroy. That along with Even Flow and Do The Evolution have been every night songs for a while now it seems.

    It's about to be three shows in a row, the way things are going in Portland. Does Ed have amnesia?

    I haven't looked it up, but I'd be willing to bet one zillion dollars that Corduroy has not been skipped for three consecutive shows since Vitalogy came out.

    These are strange times we're living in.

    Glad I got it last week in Seattle!! Corduroy is the only song I hate to go without! But whatever the case, the setlists so far on this tour are insane. Absolutely insane.

    Remember the 72 shows on the Binaural tour...and there was ONE show that didnt get Corduroy? That one night had to have been an oversight!!

    I think ive only seen Corduroy 5 out of 8 shows ive been to. (compared to Given To Fly & Why Go at all 8, and Even Flow & Evolution at 7, Small Town at 6.)

    Imagine a whole tour where those songs only got played every 3/4 nights. It's like an episode of The Twilight Zone!

    They can continue to play this, but for the love of god, isn't it about time to retire Evenflow?

    I understand that casual fans may want to hear it, but damn...

    They've already skipped it on this tour once. That's good enough.

    I'm not down with the notion of "retiring" any song. There's no reason.

    I've always liked hearing it, but its okay with me if they rotate some other stuff in for a while. Unexpected, new and change are good concepts.

    Good point. I withdraw my bitchy statement. Evenflow has a few good purposes; it's a great song to take a piss/beer break during. Also, it really is a fun concert song.

    I've gotten Corduroy 14 out 14 shows from '98 to '09 that I've been too and I'm not sick of this song live. Evenflow (13 of 14) on the other hand... I could do without.

    I'm generally against signs and such. But if someone would make one of these, I think it would be hilarious.

    I will say the re-emergence of Immortality in SLC almost makes up for the lack of C'roy.

    Bumping. Because they STILL haven't.

    Again ... I really hope years from now I'm not saying, "Man, I was there alllllllll those years ago at Seattle 1 in 2009 ... you know, the last time they played Corduroy!"

    Don't mind it getting a small break ... only hearing it once in a 2 show stay in one city is absolutely fine, and actually, preferred.

    But, if they came to my city, a city they were only playing one show, and Coduroy was skipped, I'd be bummed out.

    Bumping again. Just to plant the seed of suggestion for tonight.

    I agree with the above poster. I don't mind it getting a small break. But it still needs to be making regular appearances in the set. Four shows in a row without it are too many. Five would be blasphemy.
