I've gone for Daddy and The Castle...

[radams]

i remember a couple of tours ago, requests were taken here and i dont remember any change in the setlist. hopefully we'll hear some new stuff this tour.

i think, since distortions is out the window, that cutting grass might be the board favorite to hear live.

the ones i submitted were

tk
cutting grass
jigsaw man
circle of fifths

 
really, my top 2 are the only ones i REALLY want to hear (BTW if they could play these in philadelphia, i'd be much abliged).

[celebe]

CUTTING GRASS
CUTTING GRASS
CUTTING GRASS

it's a huge fan favorite (moreso than probably any other one clinic song) and we've been clamoring- CLAMORING! -to hear it live for years! PLEASE dig it out of mothballs for another run! most preferrably in boston!

aside from that, i'd be happy to hear some b-sides, new stuff or just anything out of the ordinary

my picks:

Lee Shan
J.O./Love is Just a Tool
Anne
Thank You (for Living)

and i do hope Dissolution, Family and Animal/Human remain as setlist regulars for this tour

also i dont think i've heard of For the Wars being played live before but if that's up for eligibility, it's got my vote

Bigg luv if you drop the dirty "Dr. G." in Washington, DC. Well, bigg luv anyways.

why is Distortions out of the question?

my favorites always seem to be the slower ones:
For the Wars
Falstaff
Animal/Human

i don't know the b-sides like some of you do - i still haven't gotten Funf!

there's been semi-official word out of the clinic camp that distortions will never be in the live set. something about it not translating well.

animal/human was a staple in the last tour. the other 2 you said would be interesting.

i think cutting grass is the top request right now. good.

[bigideas]

so they've never played it live?

has Cutting Grass been released in studio form?

[wrangler]

without checking my collection at home I think cutting grass was the bside to Distortions

there aren't radiohead-like archives of every clinic setlist ever contructed...but there is no evidence that it's ever been played live (correct me if i'm wrong everyone). the arcade fire's lyrically baffling version is the closest thing.

[vootman]

Yes it is on Distortions.

[bigideas]

if everyone likes it so much i wonder why it was not included on Funf.

Cutting Grass has been played live at least once, that i know of, as part of a Peel session... it was called The Second Foot then, i believe... and it was every bit as badass as you'd expect

and wait- the Arcade Fire covered Cutting Grass?!? holy shit! does anyone have this??

sorry, i was reffering to the distortions cover that arcade fire did. i can't imagine them doing cutting grass.

i totally forgot about the peel session cutting grass. it was bad ass

[vootman]

thought April Fools had come early then. Just incase you still need it...here it is.
