W.M.A. (Full Song or Tag) at Lexington, KY Show

edited March 2016 in The Porch
As a PJ fan from the beginning I have always loved seeing them live. I have been to 6 shows 7 including the upcoming Lexington, KY Rupp Arena show. Vs. is my favorite album from PJ. I don't know if it's the energy of the album or if I am just getting older and listening to Vs. keeps me feeling young. It's more than likely both. The track W.M.A. is by far one of my top track from the album and I seem to miss it every time I see them live by PJ playing it one show before or one show after. When I am seeing PJ live and PJ are playing Daughter and they get are about to the tag section of the song I am begging them in my head to just play it as a tag and they never give me that tag satisfaction. Now watch my friends,, my luck they will tag "Satisfaction" by the Rolling Stones since I spoke the line "I can't get no Satisfaction". So, can you PJ fans help me out? I would shit my pants if they just played it once at a show I am attending that night. It would be very special to me if I could experience that song live just once... Thanks in advance...

    Man, I am certainly with you on this one! I have had the tag at least two times, but would love to get the full version! I had the tag in St. Louis in '14 in the midst of the Ferguson case and it was very powerful with Eddie, Repeating "Justice" like three times at the end of the tag. I have some bootlegs from '08 with the full version and they sound great.

    So I am picking full version over tag. And since VS. is your favorite album, why not PJ just play VS. in full like No Code and Yield from 2014!

    I would love to hear Daughter in to a full version of WMA. Hopefully you get your request and then they continue to play WMA throughout the rest of the tour.

    WMA is amazing. They need to play this song on this upcoming tour. Open up MSG Night I with it.

    Since W.M.A. is the best pre Matt Cameron drumming on a Pearl Jam song how about a tag of the best Matt Cameron Non Pearl Jam drumming - Soundgarden's "Spoonman" as a tag into W.M.A. - I smile just dreaming about it.

    Now this would be interesting to say the least. I am on board with it.

    @BenToad I would love to see that happen. If anyone could pull that off, Matt would be the one. I just want to experience WMA once in my life live before me.

    Okay guys, you played WMA in full at the Miami show, so we know you can do it in Lexington!!! I have heard that the crowd in Miami wanted Tremor Christ and the original setlist was set to play Rival and it was changed due to request. Lexington, request WMA.

    Yes. And I am really curious as to how that Miami version sounded? Anybody at the Miami show that can comment on this?

    Yes, I would be curious to hear reviews on Miami's full version of WMA as well... I'm sure it was spectacular! This could happen in Lexington.
