    Still It's Ok :disappointed: Missed it by one show as they played it in Quebec after I saw four straight shows. Doh! Ed even teased it ever so slightly at one of the Philly shows.

    Gotta root for it at Fenway.

    Mine is Other Side. I know it's about 1/1000 I ever get it.

    I was at the three Boston shows and PJ 20. That has me very, very well-covered for albums 1-8. So many of my other whales are from Backspacer and Lightning Bolt, from which I have seen 4 and 5 songs, respectively.

    Whales:
    -Other Side
    -Rats (probably the biggest surprise that in 16 shows I do not have it)
    -Getaway
    -Infallible
    -WMA
    -Amongst the Waves
    -Parachutes

    I am with that, parting ways is definitely on my bucket list as well. I would love to get this in Wrigley along with Leash which is at the top of my list.

    Lets hope Wrigley will be the shows that will end our song chasing road. And then maybe we can enjoy every future show without the pressure of wondering will this show be the one. Lol.

    This is all i want too. Can't believe they didn't play it at the show i was at in 2000. Now it rarely comes up. Fingers crossed for one of the Wrigley shows.

    Got WMA at Greenville! Also Of the Earth at Jacksonville! Both were amazing. Super psyched. My other right now is Inside Job. Nearly flipped out at Grenville when Ed saw the request for it, but said the band couldn't do it that night. So close!

    That's a tough one. You really set the bar high on a song to catch live. I think you should lower your expectations a bit and hope for a song like Hold On, which is much more likely for you to catch. Does anybody know what the stat tracker says for Even Flow's play count is? Good luck on your quest buddy.
