  1. Good luck with Lukin. They've all been pretty terrible. EV can't sing that song for shit anymore.

  2. I figured that using the first song (Pendulum) from the first show (Pittsburgh) would be the best way to start the whole thing. Following it up Of The Girl simply might make things a bit easier for me.

  3. They should probably retire the up-tempo, roaring version and simple use the Benaroya Hall and/or MSG 2010 version instead. I think they a more suited to the stage the band is at in their career and it will help EV save his voice for other songs.

    On that note, fortunately Blood is still okay. That one might be one of the next ones that has to go, however, which will be a sad day, indeed.
  4. Another song they should retire is "Last Kiss" - not because I don't like it (I don't mind you) but the majority of the performances of this 2013 tour have had either major or minor mistakes.
  5. This band is so technically great but they just don't know how to start the song Last Kiss! Lol. It's usually a sloppy start. If they would play Lukin at studio tempo it would sound much better. It's way too fast. Who cares I guess its only a minute long
  6. I think you're right about Last Kiss - it's the start that's usually the worst. Since it doesn't help that I don't really like the song in general, I usually tune out right away and never give the performance a chance!

    A nice little bit of psychology/behavioural analysis there!
  7. Lukin is epic..it must be fast...Last Kiss is always a disaster

  8. This coming from someone who was at MSG 2, 2010!
  9. When they start Last Kiss..Im like ok good..and I run to the head .lol...Nick you probably saw me run like 6 times at the Brooklyn show, and that wasn't necessarily cause of the tunes..lol

  10. Yes and Im old lol

    And I like the slow tunes...but still Lukin is best fast...IMO of course.
  11. Don't get me wrong...fast Lukin is best - but when its played well. Arguably the best version of this tune (that I've heard, anyway) is the Lukin/NFY combo from Chicago 2000. I think you recommended that one to me some time ago, Ed.
  12. Lukin from Portland isn't that bad - once they get over the botched intro. Because of this misstep, we get to hear the "P-Town" speech - and about EV's appreciation for the show Portlandia. I've never watched it. Have any of you? I've heard good things (besides what Eddie Vedder said).
