    I always thought it was pretty cool....

    Yeah, that's a pretty cool intro. Takes me back to the days when Ed actually sings the first two verses.

    How about Stone's shorts?

    And Jeff's capris?

    I heard Ed muck around with it at soundcheck in Adelaide. He hasn't forgotten it...
    Yeh I've seen Pearl Jam, too. But I can't remember the dates.

    Was just listening to Detroit '00, and it's got Romanza-Betterman-SaveItForLater, just freaking great. The Detroit version is really odd, the intro is great, the song is great, the tag tho....someone's guitar goes completely out of tune, think it's Stone's but could be Ed's, then it sounds like Mike is sorta unsure of his tuning a little....you can't tell if ANYONE is in tune.....But still, Matt doesn't slow down, Jeff stays with him, and Ed's vocals never waver.....Probably would be my favorite version i've heard if the guitars hadn't died some horrible death. Still love it anyways.

    cheers

    Well they brought the "it's ok" tag back with "daughter" so why not celebrate the pj20 tour with a little "romanza"???

    While they at it, I'd love to have them bring back the "vs" drum bass jam intro to "go"..

    There is one boot in early 1995 where jack irons did it and it was stupendous !

    Any time I've picked up my guitar lately I've busted out Romanza. Without fail it's led into Betterman every time.

    If you haven't already done so, do yourself a favor and listen to the KC 2000 version...best ever Romanza/Better Man/Save It For Later combo there will ever be.
