just wondering. i'd love to hear that boot if they have. Sometimes is an underrated opener and busting out Hail Hail afterwords would be too cool for words.

    It was the no code release shows
    {if (work != 0) {
    work = work + 1;
    sleep = sleep - work * 10;}
    else if (work >= 0) {
    reality.equals(false);
    work = work +1;
    }system("pause");
    return 0;}

    Tampa 2008. My best show I've been too. Perfect set list for all my friends that went for the first time. It was a great night and the sound was dialed in. best sound show in a tuff arena to play in.

    The thread starter is asking which shows started with sometimes INTO hail hail. Not shows that open with Sometimes by itself. Jeez you people are thick. :roll:

    Don't you mean the REM record release party? :lol:

    they opened with Sometimes in Asheville for the "vote for change" tour. Eddie was a little under the weather but the show kicked ass!!
    by nine he had deciphered the illusion, trading magic for a fact...

    32 shows since 2001 and counting ..

    Auckland '98 was a double whammy... not only did they start Sometimes --> Hail Hail, they followed THAT up with Brain of J --> Faithfull.

    So... yeah... Sometimes --> Hail Hail --> Brain of J --> Faithfull. The two song opener No Code/Yield combo.
    And I listen for the voice inside my head... nothing. I'll do this one myself.
