    Grievance and Off He Goes

    I always loved them both, but seeing them live took them to a different level.

    You Are--- thats all I can think of cuz I love all of their songs better live but I have never taken to Nothing as it Seems....I can't listen to that song for some reason and hearing it live hasn't changed my mind much

    1. Present tense: Played at the first St. John's show, I was so close to the stage, and the energy was great. I always liked the song, but it was definitely taken to a new level, it's sounds kind of cliche, but it was pretty spiritual. Everything was perfect at that particular moment, it was just so beautiful!

    2. Light Years: Similar story to Present Tense, but at the Second show, and I was far back. It was so amazing, just breathtaking, I was at a loss of words!

    Very much agreed...

    After St John's #2, I fell in love with Light Years. The lighting board was right on the money for that song too.

    And it really ties for me with RITFW... also St John's #2.

    Betterman

    I liked it all along, but a live version is SO MUCH better IMO. Oddly enough, this was also one of the first things my father said too about it. He's not a big fan, but likes enough songs that I got him to go to a show, and Betterman was the one song that a live version of it really changed his opinion. He didn't care much at all for the album version.
