I've really started to dig Ghost from Riot Act - the band havent played it since 2003. Surely it will make a comeback on this tour!

So glad 1/2 Full has made tour - another instant classic! Best version I've heard of this is Mansfield 7-11-03. Anyone know of other kickass versions?

    Don't see Ghost happening, MAYBE once. This tour is already half over, only 7 shows left.

    Same here, Cropduster is also another track I've really gotten into. Riot Act is such as good album.

    If you like Ghost you're cool, since it has been rarely played and some other stupid reason which I don't really care about. That song is so bland, sometimes I wonder if it's really a Pearl Jam song.

    Relax, it's okay for people to like songs that you don't.

    Actually the classic case of herd behavior is seeing as many shows as possible, buying every poster, buying all boots and complaining that your seat isn't where it should be :)

    I myself Think Ghost is one of the better songs off of Riot Act myself.

    "Herd bahavour" ?

    It used to be a song I skipped on Riot Act, but hearing it live on a bootleg has given it a new lease for me. Just kicks in, no messing about. Great stuff.

    Anyone know why they've stopped playing Ghost?

    I love Ghost but it's not the greatest song live, it slows the tempo down a lot but not in the same way black or present tense do. Still should play it once this tour and Help Help. Oh and Get Right.

    i'd love to hear Ghost played, i like it alot

    theres alot on riot act i love, especially when its live

    i never, ever listen to the studio albums (apart from the space of it and the first bootlegs) i think they hold back in the studio somehow?
    ..how did it come to this?
