Okay lets have a poll for what we would love as the opening PJ song for the main set of the Dublin gig. I will (try to) keep a tally. The rules are you're only allowed to vote (once) for the one tune. I'll start the ball rolling with...'Release'

RESULTS SO FAR

Long road - 10
Release - 10
Sometimes - 4
Severed Hand - 4
Life wasted - 3
Breakerfall - 2
Wash - 2
WWS - 2
Oceans - 1
You are - 1
Present tense - 1
Parachutes - 1
All night - 1
Mankind - 1
Love boat captain - 1
MFC - 1
Yellow ledbetter - 1
Porch - 1
Corduroy - 1

    Long Road
    oh scary... 40000 morbidly obese christians wearing fanny packs invading europe is probably the least scariest thing since I watched an edited version of The Care Bears movie in an extremely brightly lit cinema.

    "All Night" would fit.

    Just to clarify, I meant "All Night"- the Lost Dogs track as opposed to TOTD's "All Night Thing".

  • I'm gonna go with Long road. Just got the San Diego boot - if the song didn't give me chills before (and it did) hearing the story behind just makes it so SPECIAL.
