There are no piss break songs.

I'm always entertained by people declaring certain songs "piss break" songs. The only time I take a piss break during a song is when I'm at home and I can pause what I'm listening to.

Seriously, I just paid to see a really, really good band play live. Why would I skip out on any of it? I've seen Evenflow 32 times (thanks StatTracker!), and urinated during zero of them. One of the cool things about being an adult is I can hold it for three hours.

I've been to 37 shows and never, ever, not one time taken a leak during any of them. Between bands? Sure. After the show? Absolutely. Just not during.

Who's with me? How many non-piss break shows have you been to?

    i took one piss break once. What a mistake.
    During Sleight of Hand. I used to dislike the song. Luckily I was in and out of the pisser real fast, but as I walked back to my seat, that mutherfucking song sounded so epic and big and was seriously bouncing off the roof and reverberating through my innards. I've loved it ever since. It was my "it was meant to be" piss break i suppose. Gave me a better love for a song.

    But yeah, I will hold it until there's piss leaking out my eyes if I can.

    So, I think im at 17 shows/1 piss break

    Ive pissed myself at pj shows. I like to drink pre and i have had to pay the price a few times. Now ive been to so many shows i dont mind going during even flow and even if i dont have to pis i still will go when the fixer comes on. If this album features more pis break songs then ill just have to drink more before shows on this alleged tour. And if they insist on keeping just breathe on rotation i will pis on everyone near me.
    He was ok but wondering about wandering

    Yep. Idk how you cannot have to piss at least once during a show.
    And so you see, I have come to doubt
    All that I once held as true
    I stand alone without beliefs
    The only truth I know is you.

    Don't you people just really need to pee sometimes?? :lol: There is no way I'm getting through any show without a bathroom break if I'm drinking any alcohol at all.

    I stop drinking at about midday on the day of a show. Seeing the concert is way more fucken important than drinking. I can drink any day I can't see PJ or whatever other band any day.

    I agree, except it doesn't matter if I got a free ticket, or paid $250 to get in, I don't like piss breaks at PJ shows either. I'm a beer drinker mostly, but for PJ I like to drink a little bourbon on the rocks instead. This can get tricky of course but I can make it through the show without pissing with this method ;)

    I think wrigley bathrooms are going to take much longer than 2 minutes..

    Encore breaks?....
    I dunno - of course to each their own, but it seems a bit weird to me to not be willing to run to the bathroom during a show and to actually dehydrate yourself so you don't have to! But that's just me! :lol:;)

    (if you're in a GA pit, that's another story)

    This is a must in festivals. Like 1-1.5 hour to the show, the place gets so jam packed you cannot even move your arm up and down. 80-100 meters (yes, metric system, sorry) way to the toilet is impossible to make.

    At least in SA, it was like that. So absolutely no type of liquid consumption after midday in festivals.
