    As you all probably know, it is not altogether impossible for Ed to ask someone from the crowd what they want to hear or for them to play a fan request they see on a sign in the crowd. I just wanted to share a funny story from Katowice 2007. Someone in the front row had a very nice sign saying something like '3 continents, 100 shows, thousands of new friends'. So Ed walks up to the guy and asks him to pick the next song, anything he wants to hear. Obviously, we all gasp and stand there hoping he's gonna wish for sth. really rare. The next thing we see is Ed with his familiar grin and he says 'I thought he was gonna ask for a love song, but he wants himself a Whipping!' That's Ed for you...

    (obviously, we were all disappointed by his choice, especially because most of us heard Whipping the night before in Munich, but it turns out it was that guy's favourite song, so I guess it was ok then)

    My top 3 wish list (okay 4)

    1.Crown
    2. Love Reign

    Cover the song 3. "You stay here" by Richard Shindell, I think Ed would do an AMAZING version of this if let loose at it. If you listen to the cover version of this song done by Willy Porter and then imagine Ed singing it with the energy he puts into Masters of War Oh my God ! http://www.allmusic.com/cg/amg.dll?p=amg&sql=33:fcfuxn8kld0e~T001
    It would leave you breathless and with goose bumps the way you most likely did with Love Reign the first time you heard him sing that !!

    Oh yeah and just for fun I would love to see "Bugs" live !

    i have finally come to the conclusion....

    that i will never hear RATS live again....

    i heard it at my first or second show....and have not heard it since...

    they broke it out again last tour....but not at any of the shows i was at...

    oh well.....ill live...
    Take me piece by piece.....
    Till there aint nothing left worth taking away from me.....

    I've been lucky enough to see Footsteps and U at least twice as well as Hard To Imagine, Sad, All or None, Love Reign O'er Me, Black Diamond, Rats, Undone, Smile, Don't Gimme No Lip, I'm Open, Education (twice!), Crown of Thorns, Man of the Hour, Low Light (twice), Down, I am a Patriot, Sonic Reducer (twice), and Parting Ways.....And I've only seen a handful of shows. I think I have been lucky enough and will be happy with any setlist....but if I had to pick one song I'd like to hear them play that I'm afraid I won't see in West Palm Beach, it would be "Wash".
    There's Pearl Jam, The Rolling Stones, Chuck Berry, Robert Johnson......and then everybody else.

    I've gotten really lucky at shows that I've been to in the past...

    I was there for the very first time Sad was played...
    I've Got A Feeling in Boston in i dunno how long...
    Leash in Boston 1st time live in 06...
    Albany for 1st Rats and Satan's Bed of the tour... after not being played for a long ass time.
    Low light being played for the 1st time in 03
    The whole mansfield pre-set... (driftin' and all those yesterdays especially)
    I'm open 2x (hartford and chicago)
    So many great memories! There's more but I can't quite remember them all...

    That being said... I want to see Oceans played so bad it's not even funny and I'm afraid I will never get it

    My list of unheards is:

    Oceans
    WMA (full)
    Who You Are
    Around The Bend
    No Way
    Pilate
    Push Me, Pull Me
    Help, Help
    Bushleaguer
    Big Wave

    Then there are things off of lost dogs like Wash, Fatal, Undone, Dirty Frank, Education, Dead Man & Black Red Yellow that I really want to hear...

    As far as covers go, I've never gotten Fuckin' Up live and I'd really love to see Love Reign O'er Me some point this tour.

    I can't complain though, I love everything they toss at us and I'm always surprised when they play something I've never heard live... Actually my 19th (last show I was at) was surprising b/c I saw 3 songs I had never seen live before and that's rare for me, finally got Hard To Imagine after all those shows... it was the highlight of the tour for me.

    I will hold the candle until it burns up my arm. I'll keep taking punches until their will grows tired. I will stare the sun down until my eyes go blind. I won't change direction and I won't change my mind.
