    Rave on, man. Feel whatever you feel - actually, feel free to judge me.

    Mis-judging, but have at it.

    It's happened before.

    The boycotted the Raleigh show in the belief that everyone deserves to live happy and free, well I feel the same

    I would find it very strange if the lack of play has anything to do with political reasons. That's not like the band.

    Same here.

    It's amazing live, i was lucky enough to see it in 2013, and Eddie made it very political with no hesitation.

    nice, I must have missed that boot, but you are right it is amazing, so just play the song, already, not played since 2014 is a tragedy, that is 32 shows in a row (excluding Bridge School shows & Oracle corporate event)

    Got thrown in the same pile with all the other insignificant filler tracks that overstayed their welcome during the album's tour and the couple of tours following it.

    filler tracks? obviously much different tastes in music, that sounds like a standard canned response, according to your logic, they view the whole Binaural album as filler tracks, that's beyond dumb

    It's a good song and even though for me it's a middle-of-the-road Pearl Jam song musically (which means it's good anyway!) the words to Insignificant are significant and relevant and for that alone it makes darned good sense to hear it more often.

    It's late- gotta keep the house quiet- but tomorrow, we rock Insignificance , Hank!

    Great thread, great timing, BBH.

    yeah that's just convenient, lets put it out of sight, so it's out of mind, I am use to that attitude living in America, typical and I expected at least one of these responses, and actually since it relates directly to a song and why it is not played
    You seemed to be using the song request as a jumping off point for a political discussion. That seems better suited to AMT.

    Hank... You seem to be really argumentative with people in this thread. Which kind of follows the pattern of your visits here. You start off mellow, then start a bunch of threads where you get frustrated with people and then you post that you're done with the boards for good. Why not ease off the accelerator a little and pace yourself here. Stick around awhile and enjoy this place.

    How about some Grievance as well! Such a great combo with Insignificance.

    sad if that is the case, then just come out and say it, and own it, because at least that will put everything in perspective, just want to hear the song

    Wait, are you miffed about your view that Binaural songs are not being played (I recall quite a few in recent shows - Of the Girl opener, even!) or the lack of one song in particular for political purposes?

    Yet the amount of military sales to other countries has only increased, and people in countries are still dying and those are human beings too. If that is the case and it is defined by an association to a particular political party, just let me know now, instead of pretending, and I will just let my membership run out. Because I can't support anything hypocritical.

    are you listening to the same shows I am? It has been played 7 times total since 2010, including one time in 2015, and one time in 2016
