Longing to Belong from first two shows? Maybe he doesnt like it very much; I don't really. But it being the 1st single you'd think he'd a played it by now. Welp cya in Hartford

    I find it very surprising, I kind of expected it to be a given. I happen to like the song, but I love the setlist he went with so I certainly am not complaining! ;)

    Didn't play it in Hartford, CT either. I'm going to say that he's saving it for its debut on Letterman Monday night. ;)

    Yea, that's pretty strange though.

    I do find this very odd too. But I think he will play Can't Keep on Letterman....

    This has to be the explanation. Even though it's the single it's my favorite from the album.

    I've come up with a better explaination. Last night I was listening to Ukulele Songs and Longing To Belong came on. A major part of this song is the cello or bass that's being played in the background. It's really the only song on Ukulele Songs that has more than just the uke in it. With that in mind, even if he could probably pull it off with out someone accompanying him, it wouldn't sound right. I'm hoping that at a select few venues (Portland or Seattle) he has someone there to accompany him. I know Matt Cameron's wife plays and she was at the Pearl Jam shows in Sept. of 2009 in Seattle. *HINT*HINT* ;)

    Yes, I am surprised...I posted this before on one of the fanview threads from the first couple shows. As others have said he may not be playing it due to the lack of a cello player.

    It seems to me it wouldn't be too tough to find a player or simply do without one. Hope to hear it in Detroit.
