Go to this song list ... Click on "Times played" to arrange the list in order of times played ... and then tell me what the rarest song you've ever seen live is. Here are mine, separated into two categories:

Cover -- "Everyday," by Buddy Holly. Played once 10/18/2000 in Lubbock.

Original -- "Driftin'" -- played four times. Saw it 7/16/06 in San Fran.

And you?

    Education....then Bee Girl.

    Ed has played some of those songs solo but i guess they don't count.

    Well...

    According to this http://tenclub.net/songs/songs.php?order=Num&dir=Down and BEFORE Ed's solo tour, it would have been: I used to work in Chicago at Bridge School 2006.

    But, since that's now been played a few more times...it's now a tie between:

    Can't Help Falling in Love (Vegas 2000)
    Last Soldier (Impact Awards - Seattle 2004)
    Don't Believe in Christmas (Seattle 2002)

    I saw Help Help (played 9x) twice live. And I'm one of those that considers that to be lucky not unfortunate.

    Also saw Push Me Pull Me in Camden 98, played only 3 times, Don't Gimme No Lip, and Bee Girl.

    Also saw Growin' Up at Holmdel 03

    Not too shabby

    Saw the Mamasan Trio backwards once too

    Well I was at the San Diego 03 show where they played Arc. But I wasnt actually there when they played it. My brother wanted to leave before the last encore to try and beat the crowd to the tour bus. My brother pulled off being a roadie. One of the roadies even questioned him and he played it off and convinced the roadie he was a roadie. But we didnt get to meet the band they left in a van. But still. thats the rarest song I should have seen.
    Shows:
    San Diego 2003
    Grand Rapids 2004
    Grand Rapids 2006
    Detroit 2006
    Columbus 2010
