What are the chances?

I've only been to SIX total PJ shows, and like everyone else, I've been lucky enough to catch a few rare tunes (Fatal, Around the Bend, All those Yesterdays, Bee Girl, Hard to Imagine, a full Little Wing and a full Star Spangled Banner). I've also seen I've seen some of the more popular songs at multiple shows. Not counting the stuff off of the BOLT (LB, MYM, Sirens, which I heard at all four shows on this tour), I've seen Alive and Porch at every show, GTF and DTE at 5 shows, EWBTCIAST, BetterMan, Unthought Known, and Corduroy 4 times, and Black, Jeremy, Spin the Black Circle, and Daughter 3 times. I'm not complaining, and I've never seen them phone anything in.

However, through some strange force I do not understand, I've seen the song Down 5 times in six shows.

Does anyone else have a song like that, a song that surely isn't a "hit", but seems to get played everytime you show up?

    Chances are slim. It looks like you caught it 5 times out of the last 18 times it was played.

    I've seen Down 3 times in 16 shows
