I read an interview with Mike once where he was asked which song he liked playing the least and he said Corduroy..now I think of that every time I hear it.
wonder why they play it every night then (pretty much)....it's not like it's a huge hit or anything...

I read that too. He used to call it 'Borduroy' which made me laugh. Love Mike. But the interview I read said he had since come around on it and was digging it again. This was years ago though.
Well that makes me feel better...cause I think it is a really good song...at least he is liking it again.
If I knew where it was I would take you there. There's much more than this

So do I. I mean he kills it every time, but if he really was playing it with all his heart, not just playing it to satisfy us all, he'd fucking melt everyone's faces off.
I think that's just how Mike felt at the time he was interviewed. They used to play it more even more often than they do now.
gndcd402 you're doing a GREAT job once again!! :thumbup:
When I did a couple of relay threads for the 2009 Aussie tour, I was stoned, drinking beer and red wine, talking on skype and chatting in the relay thread at the same time and wrote "PRESENT WINE" instead of Present Tense, missed a couple of songs etc....I was pretty smashed by the end of it! Ahhhh good times!

Well damn. I didn't realize we were all at the Cleveland show. Well I guess we have a group or club or something. Does that mean we need a name now and more importantly. . .are we all inagural members of the "club" so we get low membership numbers for some sweet ass unforseen deals?

It's an amazing song! I love that it's a concert staple. And yes, I'm glad Mike came around on it. I think it was the 2000 tour, somewhere around then, when he referenced being bored with it, but as the 2003 tour was starting - and when this interview took place - he had come back around on it and was enjoying it and trying to improve the solo each time. One of my favorite PJ songs, for sure.

Where are the statistical masters who can tell us if this has ever been done?
They played it as the 2nd song of the 2nd encore at Bonaroo in '08.
words seem so out of place.

at this moment, yes i would imagine
That's for the best. I don't think they should play it more than once per city.
