What's the one song that eludes you?

[IndyDMB]

Just busted stuff. Finally got spoon at my 70th show 2013.

[cooke726]

over 20 shows still missing:

Busted Stuff
Spoon
Lover Lay Down
Long Black Veil
Crazy Easy
Broken Things

[Hilly]

One of the things this thread brings light to is the high volume of the band's catalog that people have seen live.

[drop2d]

Minarets is one that I've come closest to seeing but haven't seen yet. I've had tickets to shows it's been played at... just didn't go to the show for one reason or another.

Raven and Spoon also continue to elude me but to a lesser degree.

28 shows since 1998

[Jordan#41]

I Did It

[morecornbread!!]

29 shows, no:

#34
Lover Lay Down
Let You Down
Cry Freedom
I Did It
Dreams Of Our Fathers
If I Had It All
Angel
Mother Father
Busted Stuff
Raven
Kit Kat Jam
Dreamgirl
American Baby Intro
American Baby
Smooth Rider
Hello Again
Steady As We Go
Grux

The bolded ones are the ones I really want to get. I have completed BTCS, which is always a plus

Also missing Minarets

[RLLRRR]

It was So Much to Say before Chula Vista, this year. Holy shit, that took far too long for such a popular song.

Now, it's The Stone, So Right, JTR, Idea of You, and the Last Stop. Which is crazy because they've played several of them this tour, and a couple last tour, but I missed 'em.

No Spoon, but (don't crucify me) I don't really care for that song.

-Too Much

got the fake out at The Gorge this year lol.

first post, hello Ants!

[YankeesDMB41]

24 Shows...no Typical (ughhh), Spoon, JTR, Raven,Grace Is Gone, Dreaming Tree, and #34...took something like 18 shows before my first WWYS, that was pretty remarkable

I got lucky. I knocked out Spoon early. In my first five or six shows. (And then saw it again D&T style in 2010.)

That's the weird breaks when it comes to seeing a band with ever-changing setlists. I've seen Sweet Up and Down three times on three different tours, but I haven't seen Pay for What You Get once in 15 years and nearly 60 shows.

[barbogast]

Spoon seems to follow me around a bit. Heard it now three times in the past three years

Minarets
Halloween (heard a partial "loungey" version back in '02)

Is it this show? http://dmbalmanac.com/TourShowSet.as...=69&where=2002

Saw that a while back and was curious how that sounded. Was it obvious?

*crucifies you* Crosses crossed and hung out like a wet rag.

[DMBfan22J]

Caught my first I'll Back You Up this summer in 15 years of seeing shows. That was my biggest one that eluded me. Basically seen them all except Let You Down/Dreams of Our Fathers/etc.

So meta.

I don't even bother counting that one because no one has heard it.

It's like saying you haven't completed Stand Up because you've never seen Trouble With You, imo.

[socopithy]

Only been going to shows since '06, so still chasing plenty. Biggest ones are:

Cry Freedom
LYD
JTR
Joyride
KKJ
Raven
PFWYG (hate that I didn't catch it this year)
ABI
Stand Up (I love this song, shut up)
Dodo
Dreaming Tree
Help Myself


Now that I wrote those out, I'm actually really pleased with my luck having only been able to mark off that I've gone to shows in '06, '12, '13 and '14. I've been to more in the years in between, but for the life of me I couldn't figure out anything prior to 2012 when I joined Almanac. It would have been mostly Bethel, NY shows.

[vaxarado]

Busted Stuff
Pay for What You Get
Sweet Up and Down
Let You Down
#40

[Funkyhamster]

Freaking Ants Marching.

In my four shows, I've seen Minarets, Halloween, LLD x 2, The Stone, and Pig... but no Ants. Or Two Step for that matter.

[Roose13]

Quite a few for me, but none as bad as Spoon. Would love a #34 too.

[v0taw]

56 shows in, the only song I haven't heard that I'm still chasing is Beach Ball.

And Let You Down/Mother Father, but I'm not counting those.

[Trav606]

After finally getting Spoon last year, I think Busted Stuff is my most sought after song. I've been very lucky with rare songs. I got Let You Down at my very first show back in 96. Other than a couple Everyday songs and one Stand Up songs, I've heard almost their entire studio line up.

[loganlee_41]

I got really lucky getting to see "Spoon" with Brandi Carlisle at Deer Creek N2 in 2013. Almost crapped myself. As for songs that elude me, "The Last Stop" and "Rhyme and Reason" seem to be the songs I never get to see

[Gene Parmesan]

Sweet Up and Down and #34

It was Halloween before Shoreline 2012. Don't really care to hear Spoon. Would just be to cross it off the list. Don't hate it, just am not ever hoping for it.

[specialkd24]

No Cry Freedom or I'll Back You Up in 34 shows.

[monizzle145]

drive in drive out, say goodbye, space between granted i just started going to shows in 2012 been very fortunately to cross allot of rare songs off.

although at least in my opinion spoon is overrated live i heard in n2 hartford last year and ehh its ok but outside of the jam at the end to me its not as good as people make it out to be
