Am i dreaming, or did PJ have an album called "Riot Act"?

So, I just went to the last three shows (Cbus, Indy, Cleve) and saw 0 songs from Riot Act. Am I complaining? Not really. In fact I am thrilled I didn't have to see Save You. But I defintley did not expect an entire album to sit out all three shows. Though, they did play Down, which was cool.

Actually, at my last 5 shows, I have seen 2 songs off Riot Act. That's dating back to 2006. Is it possible that PJ dislikes this album as much as some of the fans do?

I also only saw 3 songs off Binaural, a different one each night.

But I am really not complaining, those were 3 of the best shows I have ever seen, by any band. Maybe this whole thing was part of the reason why?
words seem so out of place.

    They now recognize their mistake. :)

    I wish they would play 'You Are' more often.. Deff less 'Save You'. 'Down' is a good song but if any of the b-sides from Riot Act I would like to hear 'Otherside' for once.

    I love You Are live. While Riot Act is my least favorite album of theirs, I would like to hear some more of it since I missed the 03 tour. I'd like to hear Ghost and 1/2 Full at least.

    1/2 full was on the Indy setlist but was scratched.

    There are some really good songs on Riot Act but if they are going to leave one record off a setlist, this would be the one.

    they should have taken 3 to 5 songs off the last three ablums, put them one cd and called it avacado back riot, now that would have been a good ablum.

    Less Backspacer, more Riot Act IMO.

    I have a lot of love for Riot Act and think it should have more songs played from it. Not saying every set but Love Boat Captain, Green Disease, All Or None, Ghost, Can't Keep, Get Right, 1/2 Full, You Are, Help Help and I Am Mine are all classics as much as the songs from any other album and deserve to be heard once in a while. :?

    Yeah I was at cleveland and was also suprised, binaural is my fav and slight of hand was cool but a little more would have been nice, me and this other guy noticed that the gutiar one of the stage crew guys was testing sounded exactly like "you are" so I was pumped for that but it didn't happen, still the best of my 2 shows for sure though.

    This album is so so good, dont get why people hate it. So many tunes they have forgotten.

    riotzact... they actually sound test that at every show! i always thought that at first too, but they do that at every show
    it's largely due to eddie that i liked to jump off of things as a child...

    Grievance & insignificance LIVE is just mindblowing!!!

    Totally different to the studio versions! Stone and mike rock the middle 8 of insignificance sooooo good that i think they should re record it for a redux!

    i love riot act! better than avocado in my opinion but avocado still beats back spacer (except force of nature and got some)
    that's my opinion...

    but songs like i am mine and love boat captain are great songs and should be worked in... but then i also remember how long the 2003 tour was for riot act and they played the songs alot... probably why i like riot act so much because of all the good boots from 03.

    It was cool to hear 1/2 Full at Jazzfest - lots of people with no idea what song they were playing - haha. They haven't forgotten about it - just lots of other songs to play, and sometimes I guess they don't get around to those songs as much.

    I'm happy Riot Act finally grew on me. Finally "getting" You Are was the key. Help, Help seems like it would kick ass live. Would also love to hear I Am Mine with a nice extended solo to finish.

    "Riot Act" has some REALLY good songs...but it's also got some REALLY shitty ones too.

    It's the only album that I struggle listening to from start to finsish.

    HOWEVER..."1/2 Full", "LBC", "All or None" and "Can't Keep" kick ass live and are welcomed addtions to any setlist.

    +1 on Avacado, really a rebirth for me, solid from start to finish!
