    I'll help you out! It's one of my favorites too and I just had the privilege of hearing it live in Las Vegas - thanks to Soon Forget. Awesome experience.
    Thank U!

    I still can't get enough of the song! I was at both Milwaukee shows and was surprised that they didn't play it at either show. I'm hoping to hear it one of the nights at the Gorge!

    I'm in...Marker in the Sand is my favorite on the album.

    By the way, isn't this verse:

    Walking tightrope high,... Over moral ground
    Seeing visions of,............. Before you burn them down
    Do come round

    Really this:

    ...walk the bridges first, before you burn them down

    Thats what I hear when I listen.

    Just wondering if I am a dork or not

    to whoever has seen it played live what kind of reaction do you feel the crowd had to it..i've seen it a few times i think they played it at 3/4 shows i've been to this tour and i was shocked the crowd wasn't more into it..cause i sure was..i would love the chorus to become a huge crowd sing-a-long for many years to come
    I'll ride the wave where it takes me

    Just saw Marker for the first time in Vegas and it was amazing! Consider me an official member of the club.
    It's definitely my favorite on an album full of close second faves (Inside Job and Gone are in the lead right now, with Army Reserve and Severed Hand right behind). The audience was VERY enthusiastic, in my opinion. As a matter of fact, all the new songs played that night seemed like well-loved friends.
    Call me crazy but this is the first PJ song that reminds me of the Grateful Dead (Touch of Grey, specifically) and coming from an old Deadhead, I mean that in the best of ways. Boom rocks it in the end.

    After digesting the album for a couple of months, its topped Yield as my favorite. The Yield police will be out to get me for stating that but WWS, Parachutes, Come Back and MITS are some of the best songs PJ has ever put together, imo.

    As for MITS, its probably my favorite PJ song of all time quickly moving into 'classic' status.
