TO KICK OUT THE JAMS MOTHER F'ERS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

According to the song counts, they've played this one nineteen times. Admittedly, I've only heard about half but CANNOT imagine there is a better (more spirited, powerful, etc.) rendition than 5-22-06, The Palace of Auburn Hills show.

The thirty-first song in a thirty-two song set (thirty-three if you count Ed's pre-opener), they just KILLED it. Matt is playing so hard. IT IS (as the kids say these days) SICK!!!!

Check it out if you've never heard it. It is really good when played in sequence with the two songs that surround it on the setlist.

Would love to hear from anyone who can argue that there's a cooler version. Wish I could find the full video version, but you'll get the jist.

    Agreed, not the best.

    MSG in '10 is pretty awesome but Ed is pretty spent at that point.
