Mmh...Cropduster has been one of my personal highlights of the night...

Just got back to Philly from the show and it was awesome, maybe not quite the spectrum or state college but I guess I'm biased. I loved hearing world wide suicide come back and I can't tell you how much I love Marker in the Sand. I think that is just a great great song. However, am I the only one that thinks that cropduster is a horrible song. It is so damn boring. Don't get me wrong I love most of what the boys do but can we admit that this song belongs in the garbage. Your feelings.
Not a fan of the song, but it was my wifes favorite song on Riot Act.
Love Cropduster. Personally, the only thing I was disappointed about with the song was that it was not given the back-up vocals treatment by those 3 roadies. I think adding them to the end on "The moon is rolling 'round" part would help the live version match the album one.
I really like Cropduster. Great guitar work, good melody. Love when the staccato riff kicks in on verse two. Not a great song name however.
This thread is a complete opposite for me because I find Marker to be one of the cheesiest PJ songs there is. The chorus is ridiculously lame
“I know this song so well, I can smoke a cigarette, have a drink, brush my teeth, take a shit, and mow the lawn while singing it. But I'll only be doing a couple of those things during this version.”
I disagree. Besides Black Diamond, that was the only song from Night 2 that I'd never heard before. I loved singing along to it tracing back the many times i've listened to the state college and msg boots from 03. Sorry but ur loss i guess

I dont think anyone is complaining that they played the song, just expressing their like/dislike of the song.
Is one not alowed to express their feelings on which songs they do & don't like?
Without a doubt one of my fav's from Riot Act.
I was teaching 6th grade science when this song came out and actually used it in class.
"Light green to green
Dark green to brown
Every life is falling down
Brown to black
its coming back
dies to be part of the ground"
A trees life cycle...awesome
"Eyes no eyes
there's no difference
"I was the fool who thought the world
turns out the world thought me."
Heavy stuff and clearly questioning god. These lyrics I skipped with my class.
Plus by the age of 2 my son had this song memorized.
Again AWESOME stuff and you are luck for having heard it live.
Peace.

If having a giant hate-on about a song or an album is what people need to do, power to them, I guess.

I have to agree with that. Quite a few people in my section used All Night as a beer/bathroom break.
Cropduster owns.

actually i agree with that, except maybe Save You.
how can anyone find anything bad to say about this night.
ace fucking freehely and CJ Ramone ?
Lighten up brother.
This show kicked major ass.
That it ain't no sin to be glad you're alive
