    Times of Trouble is an excellent song, right up there with Footsteps IMO. When has there ever been 2 great songs created from one set of music?????

    I really like the Piano in Times of Trouble.

    That alone has been drawing me back to it.

    YES! After I posted, I went on youtube to look for it. Great minds... :smiley:

    Agreed, they are both excellent songs.
    And so you see, I have come to doubt
    All that I once held as true
    I stand alone without beliefs
    The only truth I know is you.

    There was some show in 1992 (Europe, I think) where Eddie starts singing Times of Trouble instead of Footsteps. It's pretty funny.

    I ve never heard of this. Find it when you can.
    Found it! Thanks to Two Feet Thick:

    06/25/92 – Moderna Museet, Skeppsholmen: Stockholm, Sweden [110m]
    attendance: 1,500
    set: Driven to Tears, Throw Your Arms Around Me, Even Flow, Once, State of Love and Trust, Alive, Improv, Black, (Help Me Rhonda)/Deep, Jeremy, Why Go, Improv (The First Time), Porch
    enc 1: Suggestion/Garden
    enc 2: Leash, I’ve Got a Feeling/(Dolly Dagger)/(Three Little Birds)/Rockin’ in the Free World
    enc 3: Release, Footsteps
    notes: This show, originally scheduled for the Melody Club, was moved to this outdoor venue due to the current popularity of Ten. With no opening act, Ed and Mike took the stage to open with two acoustic songs. Ed is very chatty with the audience, beginning by saying, “Today it just feels good … a fast one or a slow one?” and playing the Police cover, ‘Driven to Tears.’ Then, ” … it’s a song about summer and outdoors” and playing the Hunters and Collectors tune, ‘Throw Your Arms Around Me.’ After the other PJ members take the stage, “Let’s just have fun tonight.” intro’s a ripping ‘Even Flow.’ Ed spies someone taping in the audience and remarks, “This guy’s making a tape recording … everybody be careful … don’t make too much noise. No keep it out. I like that idea. He’s OK. Let him tape the show, yeah … we wanna remember this, right?” A lot of stuff is being thrown on stage during this show. After ‘Once,’ Ed, being hit by a shoe, becomes angry, and holds the shoe up, and smiles, fills it with his beverage and drinks from it. Wiping the drops away from his mouth, he says, “I’m crazier than any of you fucks” (turning a stupid incident into something good). Then he says, “This song is called … what’s it called?” and he passes the mic out to the audience and some guy repeats, “I’m crazier than you” several times, and then “State of love and trust” which PJ plays next! Ed sings “Help me Rhonda. I’m in too deep,” as a lead-in to ‘Deep.’ PJ is upset that this show was for 18+ ages only and later Ed comments, “You know of this thing, Roskilde? We’re playing tomorrow. After this, I feel like saying ‘fuck it, let’s just play here again.’ This is the size! It’s outdoors … this is as big as it needs to get … next time it will be at this place, it will be all ages and it will be cheaper than it was today. This was bullshit and I don’t dare say that unless I plan to live up to it so we will live up to it. We’ll see you there then, OK?” ‘Release’ is played because they forgot to play it earlier and ‘Footsteps’ is started with the Temple of the Dog version (‘Times of Trouble’) lyrics and then Ed explains the origin of the song and they restart it. So sad that this very happy night was marred by some of the band’s personal items being stolen backstage as they played.



    That once...no twice when Ed drank from a shoe.

    great find bud! I don't think I ever heard that show; I'm gonna have to give it a listen to.

    It's a fantastic show! That I've Got A Feeling with the Dolly Dagger tag is insane. I wouldn't be opposed to having this show as a Vault release. Of course, a lot of those European 1992 club shows are great.
