First songs heard live, interesting observations & whatnot:

Lost In Ohio

Let's have it. The first Ten song you heard live was.... The first Vs song you heard live was...

I guess there's two ways to interpret this, so let's do it both ways!

Going by concert:
Ten -- Even Flow
Vs -- Daughter
Vitalogy -- Betterman
No Code -- Red Mosquito
Yield -- In Hiding
Binaural -- Grievance
Riot Act -- Can't Keep
Avacado -- Comatose
Backspacer -- Got Some

Going by album tracklisting, the first song off each album I've seen:
Ten -- Once
Vs -- Go
Vitalogy -- Spin The Black Circle
No Code -- Hail Hail
Yield -- Faithfull
Binaural -- Evacuation
Riot Act -- Can't Keep
Avacado -- World Wide Suicide
Backspacer -- Got Some


Odd. I guess I've seen quite a few "second songs" with Even Flow, Hail Hail, Faithfull, Save You, World Wide Suicide and Got Some.... Upon further review, once I see Animal (which the guy behind me was screaming for) and Gods' Dice, I will have seen every "second song." And after only two shows, I'm impressed.... Yet, I have a feeling it'll be a long time coming for Gods' Dice.

First songs: Once and Go...both seen. Last Exit, Sometimes, Brain of J and Breakerfall all not seen. Can't Keep is a yes. Life Wasted and See My Friend are both no. That's 5/9, for those keeping score.

As far as final songs? An impressive zero for nine.

I'm up for this, but I'm confused. What's the difference between your two lists? You have different songs listed for each album on each list...not sure what the difference is.

The first list, I went by setlist. The song to (so to speak) "break my Ten cherry" was Even Flow. The song to "break my Vs cherry" was Go...and so on and so forth.

The second list was strictly by album playlist, as if you were playing that album straight through. The first song off Ten I heard was Once. The first song off Vs I heard was Go. The first song off Vitalogy was Black Circle.

Got it?

I am not sure of each album. (I have to take a look at the setlists.) But the first song I heard live was Sometimes, Paris 2000 and what I remember was lots of energy and (I was sitting on the side) that Ed seemed somewhat frustrated with the roughness of the audience. (He even makes a statement at some point during the concert.) This was of course pre-Roskilde.

In order of what I heard first from each album

Ten - Why Go
Vs - Small Town
Vitalogy - Corduroy
No Code - Hail, Hail
Yield - Low Light
Binaural - Insignificance
Riot Act - Save You (6/30/08)
ST - Comatose
Backspacer - The Fixer (8/21/09)
Lost Dogs - Hard to Imagine

Heard all on 6/28/08 except for Save You and The Fixer (which wasn't out at the time). 6/28 and 6/30 had such a good variety of songs.


And I've seen all the first songs except Can't Keep, including Lost Dogs.
