I understand the festival and new album tour responsibilities. And that they are trying to gain new fans and play the new album in it's pretty much entirety.... But after all these years they have to know that most of us are traveling to different states just for them on their tour.
How great would it be to get "1" rare song at each venue. Play the music that everyone wants to hear and we all love, play the monster new album, and give us 1 Gem a night, that leaves us walking back to the car saying "I fucking can't believe they played _____!!"
During the Spontaneous Curation Series I was finally able to witness Into the Woods, and I remember that show just being that much better that they played that.
On this tour my White Whales are:
- By My Car
- Oxen
- Friends Again
Can't wait for the release of the new album and the tour to get Rollin!!!
While those three are probably my exact 3 gem requests (though I've seen FA a couple times), I remember the circuital tour when they played ONE gem every night. and that tour was hard to sit through after 2 or 3 shows.
My white whale remains...chills and into the woods. I've seen friends again and by my car. Oxen would be nice too!
not really a rarity, but considering the number of shows i've seen, it's hard to believe i've never caught "i will sing you songs" live. not counting on hearing it at forecastle, but i sure hope it's included in the 2 nights in atlanta.
into the woods

^^^ Obviously I want that one
Also - Thank You Too!
Hopefully
I've only been to two shows - both on the Circuital tour - so there are many commonly played songs that are on my list.
Going to the Detroit shows, if I could pick 5 guaranteed songs, they'd be...
Phone Went West
Cobra
Carried Away
At Dawn
Sooner
Remnants is the one that jumps out at me that I haven't seen, besides a few covers, but given that Jim says it kills his voice I don't think it will make it onto a setlist anytime soon.
I'm sorry but can someone please explain to me what "oxen" is. Is it another name for How Could I Know
Death is the Easy Way
Where to Begin
Knot Comes Loose
They Ran
Just One Thing (I've always wondered why this one is so rare}

i'm 100% okay with remnants being retired at this point. with the way jim was sounding by the end of OBH2, i don't need to hear stuff that puts EXTRA strain on his voice.
Same ones for me this tour as the last few tours:
Rollin' Back
Just One Thing
Weeks Go By Like Days
How Do You Know
By My Car

Not a white whale for me but Thank You Too! would be nice
Just Because I Dp
Oxen
Can You See the Hard Helmet on my Head
I've seem the first two over the years with Oxen being played at t5. Never got a Hard Helmet and got a JBID 11 years ago...I'm freaking due dammit
Rollin Back (as opener or encore opener)
Come Closer (maybe as a bridge to Only Memories Remain)
How Could I Know (Oxen)
How Do You Know
I Will Sing You Songs (my favorite song of theirs and ive never witnessed it live)
They Ran
Rolling Back to open a show, and also Old Letters.
listening to OBH2 and realizing that i don't think i've seen "I Think I'm Going To Hell" ever performed in Colorado?
I don't think this will be an issue.
Every show seems to have a few gems and I think they do this not only for the fans but also for themselves. They will be touring 4 month straight, gotta change it up.
I doubt any 2 shows will be the same.

I caught it on Halloween '05 in Boulder... hopefully you get a good one at RR!
Losin' Yo Head
I Will Sing You Songs...not super rare but I've only heard it twice.
Rollin' Back. Almost caught it back in 2010 when they started playing it again but didn't get lucky.
New album whales will soon be bonus tracks hillside song and I can't wait.
I will be hoping for these at every show.

I caught this one at my first show right in between 'Lowdown' and 'Sooner'... Fell in love with it then and it would make my night if we got it this weekend!

1. Chills
2. Into the Woods (may be the only one in the crowd who wants this haha)
3. It's About Twilight Now
I've heard Honest Man and Strangulation a few times live, so they aren't "white whales" for me at least, but we all need a little more of those two songs.
Evelyn is not Real, Hopefully, I Will Sing You Songs, Rollin Back
Rollin Back
