I'll eventually write one of these, but right now, all I can think of is a 4 hour long Lay Low jam.  ;D

Or 2 1/2 hours of Good Intentions would be sick! :thumbsup:

Say what you will about good intentions, but last fall tour when they were breaking from touch pt 2 to the lay low jam and using good intentions in-between.... It was amazing

I remember all the folks here saying (tongue in cheek, I imagine) they wanted an extended Good Intentions and that is what we got for most of the shows last year.  Perhaps they read it on the forum and thought "good idea!"

not knocking it. Just thought it would be funny to say if that is all they played
for 2.5 hours. I guess I failed at getting the joke across

That was my point, actually.  An extended version of GI is silly, yet they managed a GI jam last year that was pretty sweet.  I think they get the joke, too.

This is my dream setlist minus some pretty solid covers, medleys etc. I know the first run would probably never work but I can dream. I did not take into account tunings or capo'd songs figured the boys would let the tech's and roadies figure that out. I know the Cobra>Stangulation>OTR jam>Cobra w/ Tyrone teases would make it 26-28 songs but c'mon that's sick we'll consider that a medley!!

Touch Me Pt 1>
Wordless Chorus>
It Beats for You >
Touch Me Pt 2
The Way that He Sings
Heartbreakin Man
O is the One that is Real
Lowdown
Gideon
Just Because I Do

25. Holdin on to BLACK METAL!!!!!!!!!: The entire venue is lifted into the air and tours the cosmos powered by the sheer awesomeness of this song. The gods try to sing in tune, but the holy vibrations emanating through the air shame them as they dissipate into nothingness, taking all of creation with them, only to be reformed in the glorious and everlasting image of the Jacket.
