Even though B has Halloween, I had to go with A. ALL of A's songs are great. Grey Street isn't as good as it use to be, and I personally could care less for #40, overrated IMO. So A, the easy choice.

ants is a much better closer than halloween. If halloween wasn't rare it wouldn't even be mentioned here in this slot. The answer is, A.

Thank you! I sincerely do not get the hype of #40.

I know what you mean. I did a "Final Spinoff" thread thinking it would be close, and it's 100% to 0%

Re: Spinoff: Better Closing Run that's actually close

I went with B and this is why:

The only song out of both set list that I have yet to see live is Baby Blue. Is that important to me? Not at all and the reason is because as good as a song is, I know it can never be as good as the studio version. Now, when it comes to the Nancies > Warehouse combo, both are amazing songs, but honestly, I would much rather hear Jimi Thing and Grey Street because i think they are more fun live. Jimi the last couple years has been amazing. Grey Street is just an amazing song live by itself. I would rather watch two step than Billies, but Billies is a good closer IMO. #40 is #40 and you can never complain about that.

Now comes the debate of Ants v. Halloween. I have seen Ants 3 times and Halloween 2 times in seven shows. Do you realize how fucked up that is statistics wise? People have been going to DMB concerts for years and can only dream of seeing Halloween. I've seen two years in a row. (Alpine) I'm not trying to brag, but that is just fucked up and amazing at the same time. Which song would I rather hear? Ants without a doubt. But, if I have the chance to hear Halloween I would take it in a heartbeat.

Thus, I would much rather be witness to Jimi, Grey, Billies, 40, Halloween
