Nothing As it Seems is fuckin awesome and gets played about as much as it should......almost never!! Which keeps it even more awesome and gives it the the holy shit effect.
Out of the Blue and Into the Black................Uncle Neil Philly 08 here I come!!!!
Id like to see NAIS open with an extended mike solo at the beginning.
Mike out there on the stage by himself under a dark blue light, ripping that solo :shock: :shock: :shock:

Sorry fans- NAIS and No More should be packed away and not played for a long time. What else should be on the short list?
How many anti-Nothing As It Seems threads are you going to start?
I hope they never put this one away.

They opened with NAIS in Cardiff in 2000. When the first thing you hear at a show is that opening riff it is an amazing feeling! It's my second favorite opener (of shows that I've been at) after Hard To Imagine at the MSG in 08. They should play it more, not less!
They should ditch Last Kiss and Baba O'Riley and play more of their own songs. The only covers they need are Crazy Mary (but only with the extended Boom & Mike outro) and an occasional RITFW.

Crazy Mary
No More

This is not exclusive to NAIS..it's open to any pj or cover song they perform.
I know...
I've just been noticing several anti-NAIS threads recently...

I actually agree with this. Not total retirement, but a good rest for the next tour
add crazy mary and last kiss as well
oh i forgot to add rvm. song just sucks these days. same damn solo like alive and e flow is. no improvision these days like in the 90's from mike.
Disagreed. For one thing, it's the greatest song ever. For another, they completely changed the way they play it in L.A. and S.D., tightening up the space-out part in the middle and shortening the freak-out part at the end. It sounded as fresh as ever.
Even Flow - Has never been one of my favorite PJ songs. Hearing it at almost every show I've been to hasn't helped either. Could be worth it for the McCready solo but even those seem to be hit and miss lately. Basically, this song really bores me!
Daughter - Also a boring song to me...really takes the energy out of the show. It should only be played if its going to have an Its Ok Tag
Corduroy - Great song but would like to hear it less.
(Out of sonsg people will probably mention) Keep: Alive, Betterman, Black, Jeremy, Small Town - Great songs are great songs and I never get tired of hearing these.
Of course No Code, Yield, and Binaural should be played MORE

They hardly ever play NAIS anymore....................which sucks, because it is a great song and really fun to play!
Not "Alive." They should never quit playing "Alive," "Corduroy" and "Do The Evolution."
