Hey all,
I was just listening to Force of Nature, then went to youtube to watch it and came across an interesting, but disappointing finding - force of nature hasn't been played since 2010! That's a shame. If anyone reads this and can pass on to the band that next time they hit the road they should def bust it out.
cheers

    absolutely right.

    but every now and then they dust off an old beauty and throw it out on a tour as a regular. Take who you are for example this year and thin air. there is always hope

    gotta dedicate this to John Cougar Mellencamp's son - he is a force of nature

    Backspacer is a tight motherfucker. I'm glad its before The End because that song is so damn sad.

    Backspacer is one awesome album and Force of Nature is the probably the best song on it. I hate to say it, but I almost feel like the fan base let the band down by not embracing this album.

    Agreed! One of my least fav PJ songs, but I still hope they play it live for the fans of it!
    Further back and forth a wave will break on me, today...

    It was a bit of a crowd killer in 2010. Sometimes that happens with new songs.

    I'm not sure I get this. How did the fanbase let the band down? We should just like everything they release whether it is good or bad??!?!?

    I kept waiting for this one to show up ... I've always liked it. Hopefully it hasn't entered the "Get Right" bin of live obscurity.

    Might be the most underrated PJ song! I loved it right away - the male version of Better Man. So happy I heard it in Cleveland in 2010.

    But the ebayer of same name has been a force for some time. Especially past couple of tours.

    Sorry couldn't resist but just unsure how this person can have multiples of most items from all shows. Either connected or a fantastic network

    It literally took me about a year and a half to get into it.

    So that last post of mine has been sitting as a draft for like 4 years.  I finally checked out all my old drafts and decided to post it because they STILL have not played this song since 2010!
