When did Stone ever start and then stop using a wireless system on his guitar? (see 4:35 of above). This is the first video I've ever noticed Stone using anything but a long cable.
I only have a list of 3 songs I've never heard PJ play that I really want to hear live (Sonic Reducer, Breath, and Oceans).
The Vancouver/Seattle shows are my usuals, but I spend a few years living in Alberta. That's when the 09 tour happened. When they announced it there was no Vancouver show, so we planned everything out with the Seattle shows. After the hotels were book and airplane tickets booked, they announced Vancouver. If I put in some serious effort I could of made the show, but I didn't.
They played Breath. The one Vancouver show I miss in 15 years and they played it. It bugged me a lot of have missed that show...... I remember by heart sank when I read the setlist.
Haha, felt that way when (but not as "severe" as you I guess) when they played in in Pistoia and I've been too the 2 shows preceding it.
"Mostly I think that people react sensitively because they know you’ve got a point"
I was lucky enough to hear Breath in Las Vegas 2003 which seemed an odd place to hear such a rare song. I also got Crown of Thorns and Hard to Imagine at back to back shows in 2006 (LA 1 and Santa Barbara).
My holy grail song would be Wash and believe it or not I've never heard Hail Hail. I've also only gotten one Animal. So in Oakland I would love a Wash, Animal, Hail Hail, 1-2-3 to open the show.

i hope one day,all will realise,how powerfull is Wash as opener and what dynamic gives toi the show and to the next song of the set,thats why the next song,always is fuckin fast..and boys rock out like crazy..
from the moment they start open with wash,after 96(they played most in the set and not as opener the previous years,) Last exit-Animal-hail hail-go-why go..is the songs usually follows as second songs..
its my favo slow opener by far..not to mention the 2 times i saw it,the shows was unreal
ps..check Bridge school 94 version.,.,is so different

I really shouldn't complain all that much. The only show that happened in Alberta while I lived there was the Virgin Music Festival in 2009. Drove from Edmonton to Calgary to see it (in fact its the only time I've ever seen PJ where I got to go home right after the show). They played Brother at that show which I think is a pretty rare song to see live.
I think it's get harder and harder to see your rare favorites live. The PJ song catalog continues to grow. They must have over 200 songs when you add up the albums, b-sides, soundtrack songs, rarities, and covers. They play about 30 on an average night. Odds aren't in your favour.... but damn does it feel good when they play one

Well, this thread was not really about rare songs per-se or the songs you've seen or not seen. But how Breath is viewed etc. the topic and discussion was meant as something a little bit different I guess.
"Mostly I think that people react sensitively because they know you’ve got a point"
I think Breath will always be a rare and badass song. Am I right that this song used to be slower (even after the title changed from "Breath and a Scream" to "Breath")? When did the much-more-awesome quick version start getting played?

I couldn't believe we got Breath in the VERY underrated Charlotte 2003 show. To this day that show probably has the best setlist IMO of the 19 times I've seen them so far. Granted, most of my shows have occurred in VA and NC so that's not saying much...
I only been to two shows, during the italian mini-tour in 06.. One of them was Pistoia, and I vividly remember I had a boner during the outro solo by Mike in Breath .. good times
I've seen breath 4 times total
The best, by far was in Oslo as I was about 5 feet in front of mike
Video is awesome until I thought why am I filming why mike is standing right there melting my face...
Breath is definitely still 'Breath' for me, I'm not gonna lie, I was a little bit gutted when I saw it was on the setlist for Amsterdam 2 and they didn't play it :( I feel bad complaining about that show though, it was immense!
I think I've seen pretty much every other song I would want to. I've seen Crown of Thorns twice, would love to hear Chloe Dancer before it though. Oh, and the slow version of Lukin would be pretty sweet

The "Breath" campaign was awesome. I still remember the excitement after MSG II; it felt as though something deep and meaningful had happened between the band and its fans.
I've heard "Breath" three-and-a-half times:
Jones Beach (soundcheck)
State College
PJ20
Ottawa
I still think it'd make a great opener. Just wish they'd slow it down a bit.

For me it's been Alone that's the one old non album song I've been chasing. Played According to stat tracker : Alone 41, Breath 66.
My count is Alone 1, Breath 3.
My love for Alone could depend on my favorite boot I bought in -93, Deen Haag, March 2 1992. If you don't have that get it.

Been to 29 shows and only caught Breath at PJ20. Seen Crown of Thorns 4-5 times, Alone multiple times.
I've seen PJ for 19 years(1994-present), and have caught many songs during that time. Breath is still the Holy Grail.

I know what you are saying about Breath. I think it's still special when it's played.
Funny thing about this song, the guy I took to the Philly show in '00 when they broke it out has been to 5 shows with me. They've played Breath at all 5 of his shows :shock:
We talked after Wrigley (he didn't go)... He says "they knew I wasn't there, they didn't play Breath for you".
Funny, I just checked the song lyrics page... I've been lucky enough to hear it at three shows
Philly 9/30/09
MSG 10/21/10
Alpine Valley 9/3/11
Since 2009 they've played it at 50% of the shows I attended (other 3 shows I saw since '09 were MIA, PJ20 2, Wrigley)
No but I will be at Barclays Night II and Philly Night I. I've also seen Bugs twice
Breath I've seen and loved it but Deep,Garden,Jeremy, release are all still want to hears for me .I did see a show where they played Alive,Black,Once,Even Flow,Oceans,Porch and I'm pretty sure Why Go (gotta check that one)and left out the 4 i haven't Seen.reason enough to keep on going right there.
Breath is my all time favorite song. Very meaningful. I hope I get to hear it live on this tour, will be going to 5 shows... I even started a thread requesting it to be played at Brooklyn. Unfortunately, it barely got a few replies
If I knew where it was, I would take you there.

My holy grail song would be Wash and believe it or not I've never heard Hail Hail. I've also only gotten one Animal. So in Oakland I would love a Wash, Animal, Hail Hail, 1-2-3 to open the show.
