It'll help us figure out what they SHOULD play on SNL. (since I'm sure the guys are anxiously awaiting our final opinion... ;) )

    Ed doing The End at a solo show months before the cd came out...absolutely beautiful, the lyrics brought tears to me eyes. Wish I could find that version again but it was removed from where I first found it.

    Twas awesome, I was at the june 15th show in baltimore and I had no idea what it was but it blew my mind, I have an aduince recording of it.

    But I'd have to say that the debut of supersonic at the O2 was the best. ;)

    Johnny Guitar is a great song live.

    I think it may have a nice hook where it could possibly motivate people to check out some more PJ tunes they are missing out on.

    Easily and no contest, by far the best on the album is Unthought Known. "WITH GEMS AND RHINESTONES!!!!!!" I absolutely love the entire album and have heard all of the songs live except for Supersonic, but Unthought Known is just so awesome live, all the fans already knew the lyrics by heart and it was just an amazing song live (amazing anyway, but you know!)

    Now I gotta go listen to it haha!

    Got Some is right behind it too, but nothing beats Unthought live.

    Was totally gonna suggest this! To the point where, now, whenever I hear Unthought Known, it takes me right back to that wonderful couple of days I spent in Seattle with 100s of my friends!

    ACL (festival) version is another great one even though he fucked up the lyrics. That part where he spoke "Can you see the path cut by the moon?" Fucking delicious! :D
    I have no patience for bad music and stupid people...

    Why would you get killed? I think "Force of Nature" is the best song they've done since "DTE".

    I haven't seen any Backspacer songs live yet so I would vote for "Got Some" from Conan.

    i think most of the ones i heard live were decent, Unknown Thought and Just Breathe are great live. Amongst The Waves and Got Some are pretty good also.

    Unthought Known at Got Some sound the best live. After that, I'd go with Just Breathe/The End, followed by Amongst the Waves and The Fixer.
