I know. I've rolled my eyes at these threads before but always kept it to myself. I have no sad reasons, thankfully, I just feel it would be an amazing song for the MSG crowd These shows are going to be insane. There will people from all over the world here and I HAVE to hear all of you scream "I MISS YOU ALREADY!!!". Never been played at MSG, I think it's about time.


Anyone behind this besides me?

  • Yep
  • Would love to see Jeff rock a guitar at MSG.
  • Guess we're few and far between. Never heard Smile live, would love it at MSG. Don't it make you smile?
  • Never seen them play it live either. Would like to at Fenway 2. It's possibly my favorite song (and favorite LP).

    But if we're being honest, most of the time that times they've played it live, it doesn't sound great. I imagine that's why they don't play it often (and because it's on the Do Not Resuscitate record). BUT it still jams, warts n' all.

    Lastly, they need to go right into it - no switchin instruments - it'd flow better (like it does on the record).

    They played it as a late encore at jones beach in 2000 on their final night of a 3 night NY run that tour.
