Hard to say why some of these songs are never player anymore. Why I ask...why.

Leash - OK lots of talk lately about this one.
Who You Are - Hasn't been played since '98
No Way - I looked and could only find this 4 times in 1998.
Satan's Bed - 1 big screw up at Penn State doesn't count
Rats - Last time was 98
WMA - Last Time was Japan '95
Garden - Come on!!

Let's lose, Even Flow, Save you and Daughter (yes Daughter) and pull one of these out!!

Who's with me?

    There was a lot of songs this tour that I wanted to hear ... I hope they go back to at least the 2003-level of diversity next time.

    Are you INSANE? Lose DAUGHTER?
    They should play soon forget and bugs more often, just for comedic value.
    One time I was trying to print a picture of me so I could give it to a friend to cheer him up after he was diagnosed with cancer, but the printer jammed, and my friend died.

    From what i can gather, and has been discussed on the board previously:

    Leash - Youth Angst Anthem -- PJ not Youth or Angsty anymore

    Who You Are - No Jack, no Who You Are

    No Way - No Way! ;) -- probably too hard to pull off live. see dirty frank.

    Satan's Bed - "model roll model roll some models in blood" -- Ed's wife = a model!

    Rats - no fucking clue. maybe jeff can't hack the bass line anymore? hah.

    WMA - you get rid of your precious Daughter, you lose your tag! maybe they gave up, seeing as how the majority of their fanbase=WMA
    i still have this sticker on my guitar though. ;)

    Garden -- not quite sure, as they were doing it in 2000, though it sounded a bit tired. personaly one of my favs off 10. perhaps because it is predominantly a song about materialism and they again feel it may be a bit hypocritical ... who fucking knows with PJ though.

    I am totally with you...Those are great songs and everything, but those other ones I would like to hear also. Especially Leash, that song is gorgeous.

    I'm not with you on Even Flow or Daughter, you punk :p

    I have Garden on the '00 tour at Stockholm's Maritime Museum, bought it solely for that...

    I'd love someone in't band to say, "Hey, we could play No Way tonight" though...

    Worked great on Benaroya didn't it? I only have ONE boot wit Present Tense, but I have about 8 versions of In My Tree, so it's not like they don't play it?

    I concur with Tremor Christ, I love that song. The bassline is so awesome. Also Garden, its my favorite song off of Ten and I would love to hear Mike wail on it live.

    I totally agree on Tremor Christ! Garden wasn't my favorite, but it's been so long I long for it.:)

    losing evenflow would be a heartbreaker, common, McCreadys solo is so beautiful on it, its a whole new experience everytime
  • toronado10toronado10 Posts: 239
    I agree, play corduroy/betterman/daughter/even flow about 1/2 as much as it
    is currently played, and bust out, all those yesterdays, no way, all night, fatal, etc.

    OMG yes!!
    They also need to drop Insignificance PLEASE!!!

    They can put in Garden, Leash, Fatal...I don't care which.
    I also agree...cut down the amount of shows Even Flow, Daughter, Small Town, Save You and Corduroy are played at...and there u go.

    I'd also like to see Around the Bend played at a show I'm at just once. ohh and I still would love to see them open with Oceans.

    you're crazy.

    Insignificance is terrific.

    the cut down on Even flow, daughter... etc.. i agree with though..

    but EVERYTHING on Binaural (and the b-sides) need to be played more.

    i didn't even know they ever played Rats!

    and i'm surprised they played Who You Are in 1998.

    and I'm REALLY surprised they've played No Way 4 times! i thought the only one was on monkeywrench radio 1998.

    all those need to be played more.. (especially who you are)

    some of the songs being listed Ed cant pull off vocally anymore ( alot from VS he cant do) or IMO they arent interested in playing musically or they feel are "outdated" and will only play in rare circumstances with exception to classic TEN and VS songs...and as more albums come out the less of a chance to hear those songs.......looking at recent setlist they have incorporated some rarities such as Sad, Bee Girl, Hard to Imagine which is nice...one im starting to like the more i hear it is Last Exit, well since Vitalogy is my fav album
  • Cropduster84Cropduster84 Posts: 1,283
    Less Betterman would suit me fine, never been a huge of that song...

    especially when they've got stuff like All Those Yesterdays, Garden, Insignificance in that could do with an airing...
