    can anyone clarify why PJ did miracles twice? was once a tag and the other full? one fuck up and one later on to correct it?

    The Pixies have been playing Wave of Mutilation twice at their recent Doolittle shows. They play the album version then during the first encore they play the slower b-side version.

    The Stooges played I Wanna Be Your Dog twice when I saw them in 2008.

    i dont want to hear the same song twice cause i know itll be at the expense of a song i do want to hear.

    its kinda like though youre ill, still feeling the need to come out and sing with the support band then having to cut your own set short because its become too much for you. not cool.

    they were probably recording a live version of the song. i have seen bands do that at shows before. they wanted to make sure they got a good take, so they did it twice. kind of like getting a group picture taken. you get multiple takes and pick the one where everyone looks decent.

    one time i saw Gravity Kills play "guilty" 3 times in one show. they were recording audio and video for an upcoming release. they are from here and it was their first time playing the big amphitheater here. it was kind of a big deal for them i guess...

    Phish sandwiches jams alot, i.e. Song A > Song B > Song A sometimes even, Song A > *multiple sets* > Song A

    I've seen Alice Cooper 3 times.

    The second time he played School's Out twice...my friends and I were very confused.

    The third time, he played School's Out of course...and then Rob Zombie played it in his set... :?

    Oooh I decoded this message. Perhaps the singer felt he was under pressure to perform with the support.

    I wsa at a Coldplay concert a couple years ago and they played "Lost" twice. I think they were filming a music video for it, so that's why they did it.

    They opened with an acoustic set and started with the slow acoustic version (same as the Benaroya and Gorge shows). During the second encore the played only Ramones songs and did the normal (i.e. fast) version.

    It surprised me at first but it makes sense in hindsight seeing that the concert proceeds were going to fight prostate cancer (tied to Johnny Ramone's fight for survival)

    i accidentally did this once during one of my shows. i had the first 10-12 song written down as the main set + 2-3 others in case i had enough time. when i finished all of those songs, i got the "keep going" sign from the manager and accidentally repeated one of my songs. by the time i'd realized it, i was already halfway through the song, so i just finished it & said "sorry i played that song twice tonight...hope the 2nd time was better!" :D
