    Great song.
    Some time ago I saw this video from I don't know where but it was Satan's Bed and Eddie was dancing to it in the begining. Very cute (I don't use this word often but it was just that..cute). So since that I always get this image in my head and the tone, the feeling, the vibe of the song has changed somehow. But still..great song.
    The worst enemies of music? Money and Mathematics. Combined with music, they both do the exact opposite of what they're supposed to do. Money makes music cheap, mathematics makes it stupid and predictable.

    "...such fine examples, skinny little bitch
    model, role model, roll some models in blood
    get some flesh to stick, so they look like us..."


    This is an ultimate song off Vitalogy... definately a cult classic, so imagine how hyped we were that they played it at the Adelaide 2 concert?! Awesome AWESOME stuff!

    The above line is a great "self-esteem" booster for teenagers (where i was when i first heard it!)... for PJ fans, makes you realise what you see in the media, is exactly that - NOT REAL!
    When you're curious, you find lots of interesting things to do...

    Thought id get this back to page 1 where it belongs :D

    I absolutely LOVE this song!! Probably my favourite off Vitalogy and in my Top 5 (though that changes frequently)

    Coming up to the Australian leg of this world tour (2006), I had noticed it was played a few times during the US and Europe legs. I had never heard this song played live, but I fucken wanted to hehe

    Having my tickets for the Oz shows, I decided to swing the odds in my favour, so I sought to create a sign, requesting this awesome song.

    My best chance was Adelaide 2, as my 10C tickets wouldnt guarantee me front row. My Adelaide 2 ticket was bought through the public sale, and I scored fromt row in between Mike and Ed.

    My mission:

    Went to the local hardware and newsagent. Bought black and red thick marking pens, a ruler, scissors and a drop sheet. Went back to the hotel and cut up a spare pillow case.

    After a few sketches, i was ready to fill in the sheet. A masterpiece if you ask me...

    The Show:

    I waitied until the encores, I didnt want to go to early, just in case Ed forgot that he had seen it (drinking problem).

    I managed to show it at the end of Crazy Mary, towards the end of Encore 1. Ed saw it while standing to the side of the stage. His head went back with a chuckle and smiled. Mike saw it at the end of his solo, and looked at me as if to say "what, you think I make any decisions??" and when Jeff saw it, he smiled, leant back into his Jeff stance, and played 1 line of the chorus!! We were going nuts!!

    During the break between encore 1 and 2, the roadie came out, scribbled out a song on the setlists on the stage, and wrote a different song in...

    When the guys came out, Ed said "gonna take care of a couple of requests, this one is from last night" and proceeded to play I Believe in Miracles.

    When that finished, my heart was racing, everyone around was cheering in anticipation. Then it started...

    Matt on the drums, Ed looks right at me, pionts at me and says:

    'AND REQUEST NUMBER 2 (he yelled it)'

    At which point we lost our motha-fuckin minds!!!

    Just had to share this experience, was truly amazing.

    Here is the link to the sign, basic, yet effective hehe

    Cheers mate. I was just browsing through the different sections a while ago and came across this thread. Loved reading about The Gorge, would truly have been amazing!!

    It is one of the more awesome songs in their catalogue, but ill always have that memory of "and request number 2!"

    The funny thing was during the first break, some of the people we were travelling around Oz with asked me "what's the sign say?" When i showed them they kept saying 'they wont play it :D'

    They were fucken happy when they did though haha
