Most commonly played song that you've never seen?

I was recently doing some idle PJ stat tracking - I know it's not for everyone but I'm kinda geeky in that way...  anyway I was concentrating on the PJ songs (not covers) I've yet to see performed myself and decided to take a look at which song has the band played the most yet I've never seen it.

So far in my 47 shows (to date) I'm yet to see:

Sleight of hand (played 51 times)
Cropduster (45)
Bu$hleaguer (32)

I know it took me 25 shows to finally see Garden and so I bet there are some strange anomalies out there.

    16 shows. Not seen

    Dissident (played 206 times)
    Glorified G (142)
    Sometimes (88)
    Tremor Christ (86)

    Strangely I have seen Footsteps (129), which is probably my least favourite popular song, a total of 7 times…. 

    Hope to catch these in 2026 (assuming they play Europe)!

    This is fun...

    Out of my 13 shows, I have yet to see I Got Shit which has been played 158 times.

    I think Pittsburgh will be a great time to pull this one out again. :)

    MFC played 166 times. Really thought it was coming at Fenway when Ed started up Untitled, but 'twas not to be.

    I think it’s God’s Dice for me. They’ve played it 55 times and I’ve missed it for 35 shows and counting. 
    This show, another show, a show here and a show there.

    The opening notes of Present Tense following that intro were such a let down.

    WWS for me too with The Fixer as a runner up.

    If you missed some of these songs album tours the numbers really are inflated compared to how many times they get played now.

    ~35 shows over the last 25 years and still no Oceans. Missed it by a show multiple times.
    "What can you expect when you're on top? You know? It's like Napoleon. When he was the king, you know, people were just constantly trying to conquer him, you know, in the Roman Empire. So, it's history repeating itself all over again."

    This morning I posted a live version of Crown of Thorns in my IG stories, tagged the band and added "would be nice to hear this live."

    Have seen Hard to Imagine x3 / Inside Job x2 / Of the Girl x2 / Breakerfall x2 / Breath x2 / In Hiding x2, though.
