    Seek,

    Don't follow the herd.
    Don't repeat in spite of the encores.
    Be yourself.
    Otherwise you'll bore us.

    Thank god for all the overrated songs. If not for them, this late bloomer PJ fan would never have known the greatness.

    I dont like to think any of their songs are overrated, but I do agree that maybe it's time to rest Yellow Ledbeter at the end of concerts, I really dont like hearing it cos I know it's that time of night.

    Underrated - Can't Keep and All or None

    Over: Even Flow (does anyone else just find the opening riff just draining, especially when they had a killer run of songs going before it?)

    Under: Breakerfall (Great opener to a show)
