  • Big Wave: played 25 times total, but only 13 in the U.S., 8 of which were California, and 3 in Hawaii. I've seen it once. (I wonder if there's a conscious decision or just coincidence to play this song near the ocean most of the time? If you look at the dates/places it was played, other than the Gorge, Hartford and a few European shows, the majority of the performances were in California, Hawaii, and Australia!)

    Pilate: Played 12 times, 10 in the U.S. I've seen it once.

    We've had Big Wave twice in Perth (always dedicted to surfing) and Pilate this time around.

    39 Shows, Including all 4 Spectrum shows, 2 at the Gorge, Wachovia 2005, 2003 - State College, Mansfield 3, Buffalo. I saw the amazing preset in Toronto this year. I've seen them play with Neil Young in Toledo. I've seen every Trilogy (I, U, Mamasan, Man). I've heard every song off of every regular album, except Oceans. On Last dogs, I have heard every song played except Undone, Fatal, Brother, Education, BRY. I have not heard Just a girl or last soldier. I have heard "I've got a feeling". I was there for the debut of parachutes and the return of leash. I was there for the Wash umbrella. I have not heard interstellar overdrive or soldier of love. I was at the live debut of Sad. Just off the top of my head. Unfortunetly and Ironically, the only song I have ever wanted to hear since show #1 was Oceans.

    Notable songs I have heard multiple times
    Free Jazz (Last exit intro)
    WMA (Full song) x3
    Wash x5
    Satan's Bed x5

    Mankind x4
    I'm Open x3 (not including EV solo)
    Bee Girl x2
    Alone x3
    Crown of Thorns x3 (and missed it at a nearby show)
    U x2
    Rival x2
    Breath x4

    Dead Man Walking - Played 8 times

    I think Dead Man has been played more than 8 times because they don't count pre-sets.

    probably bee girl if i had to pick one


    personally I'd have rather heard something else, not fond of the rare tag too much, these things tend to be rare for a reason

    exactly...bee girl, bugs, sweet lew are just a waste of time at a show IMO. Just because they are rare does not mean they are good songs
