I'm listening to the 98 show at the Blockbuster Music Entertainment Center, Camden NJ, and i'm wonderin what Eddies saying at the end of Betterman. It sounds like "run away, run away, don't let me down..." but theres more to it. Anyone know?

    I haven't heard it, but it's probably one of the betterman tags. Sometimes they'll add stuff to the end of Daughter and Betterman (or some other songs) just to keep the story going.

    And yeah, it's not the same tag every night. Depends on what they feel like doing. Sometimes, there's no tag. Here in Columbus, in 2003, we got no tag for Betterman or Daughter, but they did break out Wishlist at almost 8 minutes long.

    I believe it's a Who song called "Save It For Later" Here are the lyrics:

    A great example of a tag is on Live On Two Legs, when they finish Daughter, do a bit from Free World, then a bit from WMA, then a bit of something else.

    In 2003, at State College (Penn State), they did Daughter followed by Another Brick In The Wall and about 3 or 4 other song samples.

    On the Touring Band 2000 DVD, they do "It's OK" by Dead Moon:
