Mahgeetah has closed many a show or main set for the It Still Moves, Z, and Okonokos tours. In doing so it has become one of the best songs in the Jacket's live arsenal. But I believe that it is time to crown a new king closer. Maybe Wordless Chorus or Steam Engine? A return to Phone Went West? A new song? Or should we just keep Mahgeetah? Post your opinions here.

Steam Engine would be a good one.

When I saw them at the 40 Watt in summer 2005, they opened with Mahgeetah and closed with It's About Twilight Now and it was

                                                 off
                                                     da
                                                       hook

there was a frenzy.

Phone Went West with the drawn out ending Mercury DVD style.
I'm digging, digging deep in myself, but who needs a shovel when you have a little boy like mine.

I vote Strangulation.  Steam Engine would be too damn amazing.

anytime is a good time for a closer
That's motherfuckin' John Oates!

Lay Low would be good, as well. I like the idea of Steam Engine, but to end the show I think the song needs to be more of a rockin' song. In Nov. MMJ ended with Anytime, which was an awesome closer for the second DC show.

on new years they closed with anytime.  i love that song, its so fucking rock and roll, but so danceable.  15 of us grabbed hands and danced spinning in circles...the perfect way to end the new year.  Anytime will work for me anytime!
God damn those shaky knees.

Actually, they closed with Mahgeetah, it was just cut off from the recording.

Closed with Twilight? Wouldn't have expected that  :o

if it was up to me they would do a fairly long set, and then close with Jim solo, 4-5 songs.
Hold my life until I'm ready to use it

megisnotreal

if it were up to me, there would be no closer.

A new song from a new album that will become the quintessential MMJ closer!  the Swansong if you will.
I will be there when you die!

How about open with Easy Morning Rebel and close with Anytime?
