Made it out to WHERE and had a smoke in a tree?

Double posting… might get more traction here

This thread is crowdsourcing for a podcast project I’m working on. We’re looking to do extensive coverage of Given To Fly, what I want to do is find as many location name drops that Ed added into the smoke in a tree line. I think some of the prominent ones have been ballparks… “made it out to Wrigley/Fenway had a smoke in a tree.” There have been other locations used as pandering moments in the song. Probably the Garden, probably Philly. But definitely a lot that I’m not even thinking of, or considering.

so if you know of specific versions from shows you went to or boots you’ve listened to that pander to the hometown crowd, please share those versions! Let’s see how many we can get. Thanks!

    not a specific location, but whenever Ed is in Canada, he likes to mention drinking. At Winnipeg 05, he changed it to "made it to the ocean, had a drink in a tree". It felt like he changed that lyric to pander to the crowd. 

    unless he commonly changes "smoke" to something else, I'm not sure.

    There’s a version that I haven’t been able to find where Eddie sings “f*ckers I still stand” instead of “he still stands”

    anyone know what show this was from?

    that's from a version I hear all the time. is it more like "well fuckers....he still stands" or are you sure he says "I still stand"? maybe there's more than one like that.
