    OCEANS PLEASE... thanks :)

    Should we all make shirts that say ' NO OCEANS ' for some reverse psychology?

    I've got smile a couple times, and Dirty Frank once. Will be 40 shows after Philly, hopefully we finally get Oceans!

    Hehe, I thought about getting signs made up that "George Bush wants you to not play Oceans"

    Amazing show last night.... I sure hope that Oceans is a "song they know". Philly has been waiting for so long!

    If it keeps raining, especially like it did last night, Oceans would be apprpriate .

    I hate to think that this song doesn't get played in the next two nights, but considering my track record with it.... I am sure if they forget one song, it will be Oceans.

    I'm convinced they are saving the slow opener type songs for an acoustic set on Saturday. They will need a "sit down" set to pace themselves! Let's hope they don't forget Oceans!

    They have only played one song from the Boston 3 acoustic set (ATY), and there are too many other slow openers left to play.

    ATY was actually better electric, I was surprised!

    I guess Philly is destined to never hear Oceans again. :cry:

    Thanks 4 great shows, you just missed one song.

    Yeah - when EV said they would do every song on the albums I thought it was a done deal, but alas no slower openers were played at all.

    I think I'm destined to never hear this one, but hopefully one day I'll get the surprise of an Oceans opener!

    I felt the same way during the shows. I wish he would have never said that and not come through. The funny thing is, the number of repeats was equal to the number of songs remaining on the studio albums, excluding lost dogs. They COULD have done it. They should have opened every night with a traditional opener. Release would have been amazing on Saturday!

    I've officially given up on ever hearing it.

    I thought it would have been cool if they played Amongst the Waves and Oceans together, Oh well got one of them at least.

    Me too, I've completed every album but Ten. I only have 5 lost dogs to hear too (BRY, Brother, Fatal, Undone, Education). This week I got the last 3 from Yield, and bugs, which I wasn't going to count anyway.

    The funny thing is, when asked on my way to my first show, "what one song would you like to hear", my answer was oceans. What are the odds that the one song I've always wanted to hear the most, is the ONLY regular album song I have not heard!?!?
