in The Porch
I am hoping that with the next tour and there on after, we see different more creative tags during these songs. I loved 2000 and 2003 tours when the daughter tags were haunting and full of Mike and Stone chiming in echoing sounds and crazy riffs and Ed singing lines from various artists. One that sticks out to me is singing a line from Beck "Search Lights on the Skyline, just waiting for a friend.". Don't get me wrong, and forgive me if I can't make this come across right.... but the whole "a a oh a a oh a a oh a ohhhh was good at first, but it has taken over daughter, and the crowd usually starts that. I know the band is feeding off of the crowd... but man I'm ready for something new. This has been going on for several tours now.

I'm with you, everything since that tour has just not had the feeling on Daughter for sure. There have been some good Black tags, but it seems Daughter and Porch have lost the intensity they had a decade ago. I'd argue Porch could never live up to the intensity of those early 90's jams. RVM has only gotten better though so it has supplanted Porch as the penultimate set closer for me.
