    And please for the love of God don't play I BELIEVE IN MIRACLES like it seems like Ed loves to do in LA with Tim Robbins LOL.  There are so many better Ramones songs!

    Would love to hear them cover Pet Sematary by the Ramones.

    Would love to hear a full version of U2's Bad. 
    Also, they tagged it in Daughter once, but Pixies - I've Been Tired. Too funny those lyrics.

    I really don't understand playing the same covers over and over. I mean, maybe for one tour, but then retire them. Cover songs are fun if they're markedly different from the original. Either way, I NEVER need to hear Baba done by anyone ever again. Sorry, for those who like hearing that one. I'd love to hear them do "You Better You Bet" if it must be a Who song.
    yes! 
    I'd like to hear them do "the seeker' too

    The Real Me was great to hear.
    Well Los Angeles Night 1 they covered Baba...I don't disagree that they could put Baba to bed, but OMFG "teenage wasteland" still rocks the house! People were going ape SH!T crazy where we were.

    And that was the only cover other than the diddy in Daughter when Ed belted out Pink Floyd's Another Brick in the Wall for a hot minute.  That was fun too!

    spinning Ed and Mike's version of Masters of War...so great!  Ed covering Bob Dylan should be done more often LOL...anyone enjoying a Complete Unknown?  I liked it and thought it moved along well.  When are we going to get an Eddie Vedder biopic...@cameroncrowe should do it

    Not a huge fan of covers, but I'm okay with 2-3. Hearing an unexpected sing like "Little Sister" or something is fun, 
    I agree with those who say retire the ones that get played to death.
    Would love to bring back Love reign O'er Me. Seems to make sense they would keep it in rotation since they released an official recording, was on a sound track and got radio play for a while. Makes more sense to keep that in rotation over many of the others ones they still do.

    I love Love, Reign O’er Me and Fool in the Rain. I also think it’s high time for them to resurrect Suggestion (preferably night 1 ATL!).

    Love the holiday single and kinks song 'Better Days'.
    How about a L O L A sing along or tag? Might offend too many people.

    Awesome performance this weekend with Eddie covering Tom Petty's The Waiting at the SNL 50 event.  Anyone know why it was just Eddie and not the whole band there?  I'm guessing one or more of the boys weren't available.  Just curious if anyone knows.

    I've suggested this before. It would be amazing, a totally fun and danceable tune. It should also really only be done in Philly. They missed their chance when they closed the Spectrum lol. They can redeem themselves.

    They could play it the way the play Baba live, with Mike mimicking the synthesizers, or Boom and Josh could actually play the keys.

    There's no easy way ouuuuuuuuut...

    There's no shortcut hoooooooome...

    There's no easy way ouuuuuuuuut...

    Giving in can be wrooooooong...
    May your days be long, til kingdom come.

    It's at around 59:30 in the interview.

    Zane asked if there were any songs they'd like to play on this tour. Ed said "There's one we've never played... it would take a while. We'd be taking a class for a whole quarter to just learn one song" and then gave a little background to it.

    right, I totally forgot about that. Would be very cool if they did it.
