Immortality. Heard it other times live but NEVER so brilliant as last night.
I'm surprised no one mentioned Why Go: it's quite a classic, but I never heard anything as furious and devastating before.
The guys and the arena seemed they wanted to eat the song.

Why Go was my highlight, it reminded of the way they used to tear through it in 92/93. Great to see lots of Yield stuff, prompted me to watch SVT again after many years
Y'know, you remind me of a poem I can't remember, and a song that may never have existed, and a place I'm not sure I've ever been to.
They played Immortality in 2000 because a girl asked them to in a bar the night before.
I reckon they slipped it in again in case she was there seven years on.
hmmm... i'm sure they played I Got Shit as a request after meeting someone the day before...
EDIT: wow... i'm right...;)
from the TFT listing of the 29-May-2000 show it says
Ed plays 'I Got Shit' as requested by a fan the previous night at the Borderline (where the Monkeywrench was playing).
of course, TFT has been known to be wrong...
Oh yeah? Well, I've had about enough of morons and halfwits, dolts, dunces, dullards and dumbbells - and you chowderhead yokel, you blithering hayseed, you - you've had enough of me?
Crazy mary, I so wanted them to play it! But I cried on Present tense...What a moment, I feel sorry for those who never experience moments like this!
"Come on people now, smile on your brother and everybody get together, try to love one another right now!!!!"
"You my friend, I will defend and if we change, well I love you anyway"
"I know I was born and I know that I'll die, the in between is mine, I AM MINE"
can't pick a single 'best' track... though for me it was probably Faithfull
and Long Road... and Present Tense... and Indifference... and Porch... and... well, you know what i mean...

It's really difficult to pick just one song ... maybe I Got Shit because of what it means to me.
