    I guess I tend to agree with Ed when he says it was maybe overused as an opener. I guess it could also start the typically slow encore 1. If I recall correctly, this happen once last year.

    I tend to agree as well BUT it didn't replace the "openers". I'm happy I got it at all 3 shows tbh. I could also complain about getting same starting 4 in Bklyn 2 and PH2 but then I'd be sorta complaining about getting Wash twice in 3 shows which could be considered criminal.
  2. Very true. The (usually) three-song slow opening was excellent and to some extent changed it up a bit from past tours.

    Pendulum is a cool opener , but to play it at both Brooklyn gigs , as the opener , was surprising , and for me a let down .

    Open the encore with it etc

    As a new tune I have no problem with the band supporting the new material , just move the songs around


    At least pj promoted their new release . DMB barely play songs from their last album . Dave still force feeds 09s Big Whiskey on us .
  4. The single most depressing part of any song for me is the little instrumental outro in Yellow Ledbetter after the final " I don't wanna stay " lyric. It just reminds me of a PJ show ending and even gives me that feeling while listening to the boots!!! Unbelievable
  5. I think they did a good job with YLB on this most recent tour in terms of not overplaying it. The past couple of years it closed practically every show which took a bit away from its mystique. On the other hand, I think they did a rather poor job with most performances of Indifference. The tempo was took high, EV was too chatty. It's a pretty dark song and it would be nice if it were performed that way.

    I agree. He also flubbed the lyrics to Indiff more than usual this tour if I recall correctly.
  7. He completely missed the second verse of Indifference in Buffalo!
  8. They're in!!! They're in!!!

    I'll have to wait until this evening to get my two - crummy wi-fi in this building!
  9. Get Em while they're hot !!!!!!
  10. ...in progress....
  11. So I guess the next batch of shows released will be the Big Day Out stuff right?
  12. Not too sure if they'll take a break or keep plowing through them all. I can appreciate that you want your shows ASAP - it'll be a thrill for you to hear them again.
