How great is this song live! 
I was in the pit for both Seattle shows and was fixated on how Jeff and Stone were shredding!
On night 1 Jeff took his bass off while stomping around and for a split second I thought he was going to smash it!
All of the new songs are fantastic live but this one stuck out for me.

    Love it live

    the 2nd time I heard it in the Dolby theatre ( record store 1st time, not clearly people talking) it was pretty spectacular 

    great parts, Ed humming into that guitar part is pretty slick

    That part before the guitar solo stood out to me from first listen.  Love the way that Mike enters, that guitar tone is so slick.  And he starts his solo with a few notes in the middle of the bar where Ed is screaming, before diving completely in to shred.  This was a highlight album moment for me.

    I have to say I've never cared much for the repeated "react, respond" vocal part on the record but live it works
