    I saw Breath at 2 of my first 4 shows, but that was almost 10 years ago and haven't heard it since. Seen Crown of Thorns twice. Seen Garden twice. Seen I'm Open twice, including the first time it was played (only played 9 times total). Saw one of the 9 Arc performances of 2003. Saw All Along The Watchtower, which they've only down a handful of times I believe.

    Binaural live has been a bit of a backwards experience for me -

    I've seen:

    Rival (20 plays)
    Evacuation (28 plays)
    Of the Girl (40 plays)
    Sleight of Hand (40 plays)

    But have not seen:

    Light Years (77 plays)
    Breakerfall (80 plays)
    Nothing As It Seems (89 plays)

    after 13 shows, the stats i find a bit shocking are:

    Garden 4x
    Satan's Bed 3x
    Rats 3x
    Immortality 3x
    Present Tense 3x
    I'm Open 3x
    Push Me, Pull Me 3x
    Speed Of Sound 3x
    All Night 3x
    Footsteps 3x
    Bee Girl 3x

    then theres a whole bunch of really rare songs i've seen once or twice but i only included rare songs i've seen 3x or more...

    You're killing me with Satan's Bed x3. I dudn't see it till about my 15th show (and was thrilled when I did) and haven't caught it since.
    Not complaining though! There's nothing I've really been dying to hear that I've never heard. Only now, I want to hear some of them again!

    That's pretty freakin' lucky dude.


    yea i've been very lucky...seeing the 4 shows in philly 09 really helped me see tons of songs i may not have ended up seeing otherwise...although i think the rare song that i went the most nuts for and expected to never see was undone in boston 2010...i lost my mind...oh, and black red yellow in nyc 8-)

    Not rare songs as such, but from 6 shows since 1996 I've seen 5 different openers. Release twice, and one each for Oceans, Of The Girl, Given To Fly & Long Road.
    All my favourite singers have stolen all of my best lines.

    that's pretty sweet. i envy you hugely for oceans, of the girl and long road. 13 shows and no luck with those... but i've had pretty good luck with getting different openers as well. 11 different in 13 shows..

    Hartford 06 - Severed Hand
    MSG 1 08 - Hard To Imagine
    Hartford 08 - Can't Keep
    Mansfield 2 08 - Wash
    London 09 - Release
    Philly 1 09 - Corduroy
    Philly 2 09 - Animal
    Philly 3 09 - Gonna See My Friend
    Philly 4 09 - Why Go
    Hartford 10 - Unthought Known
    Boston 10 - Release
    MSG 1 10 - Sometimes
    MSG 2 10 - Corduroy

    in 13, only Corduroy and Release twice. I NEED to see Oceans, Of The Girl, and Long Road. 3 of my all time favs...

    i would say out of all the openers i've seen my favs are hands down Release and CAN'T KEEP (criminally underrated)

    Untitled 2x (42)
    Who You Are 2x (36)

    I've seen Ten, Vs., No Code, and Backspacer in their entirety, and I want to count Vitalogy because the three songs I haven't seen will likely never happen. What I'm waiting on: Big Wave to complete Avocado, All Those Yesterdays for Yield, Rival & Sleight of Hand for Binaural, Ghost/Thumbing My Way/Bu$hleaguer/Arc for Riot Act (think I missed the boat on that one, damn Bu$hleaguer).

    The B-sides I'm eager to catch: Hitchhiker, Don't Gimme No Lip, Fatal, Other Side, Dirty Frank. All in all, I think I've been pretty lucky.
