I realized today that Virginia Beach will be my 8th show, and I have yet to hear Yellow Ledbetter live. What are the odds I will this time?

    I'm guessing pretty good. What are the odds at shows 5-8 that I'll finally get to hear Go, Daughter, and Small Town?

    I thought that for the first four shows I saw.

    And yet I saw Breath, Crown of Thorns, Bee Girl, Alone x2, Hard To Imagine x2, Around the Bend, Indifference, Rats, Leatherman x3, Leash x2...go figure.

    that is bizarre to me. I've never been to a show where they didn't play Yellow Ledbetter!

    what are the chances of me going to 4 shows this summer & NOT hearing Betterman?

    side note - I know what WMA stands for, but WTF does MFC stand for? (Probably a no brainer but I have no idea!!!!)

    MFC =Mini Fast Cars I think Ed wrote the song being impressed with how fast cars go in Italy.
    I do like that Matt Fuckin Cameron reference... classic :D
