    I'm a fan of the 06 version. In particular the last 06 San Francisco show, I forget the date, got a really good version of Present Tense.

    i agree...i loved the way the crowd got involved at camden 06

    but it was also the first PJ song I ever heard live, at Borgata 2, so it will always be special for that reason

    I was at both shows and they were both great versions! These two are probably my favorites. I think there was a good one from Randell's Island in 96 but haven't listened to that boot in a while

    The Borgata in Atlantic City

    Opened the show with it. Unbelievable.


    I second this. What an unreal opener. I listen to it all the time.

    And he still gives his love, he just gives it away, The love he receives is the love that is saved, And sometimes is seen a strange spot in the sky, A human being that was given to fly

    Randall's Island 96' 2nd night.

    Present Tense was played after a 3 hour set and right before YL. To paint a scene: Ed had blackened his eyes with his burnt wine cork. The crowd was sweaty and exhausted after a crazy pit had kicked the shit out of everyone. Mike shreds this shit up!

    This is as good as this song gets.


    Find a clean copy and live happily ever after.
    90 shows and counting...some of my favs: Randall's Island night 2, Milwaukee '95 night 2, Hawaii '06, St Johns '05, PJ20!
