    Why does Dave say "camp" instead of "can't" in the first verse, "you camp always know whats coming, you can't always trust a twist of fate"

    How does this song not get played once in three nights at the gorge?? Stop playing the hell out of if only and gaucho and play the good songs off the album like broken things and the riff!

    Broken Things has been played more than Gaucho, but yes I agree: Broken Things not being played at The Gorge is ridiculous.

    Re: Broken Things

    A lot of the songs from the new record haven't been getting much representation live. Broken Things, Sweet, Gaucho, The Riff, Belly Full. Snow Outside and If Only get medium play. Only BBN, Mercy, Drunken Soldier and Rooftop are getting heavy play, and the album hasn't even been out a year.

    I felt like this band beat us over the head with every song from Big Whiskey for 4 straight years. They don't seem as wild about this new album. Too bad, because I love it!

    The Gorge is DMB's big moment each year, and it seems odd that so many songs from their new album were left out. N2 wouldn't have had ANY representation had Dave not decided to do "Belly Full".

    Wanted to get this one in NOLA but really enjoyed the D&T debut of The Riff. Crazy how Dave is able to sing the verses over that guitar part in Broken Things. So fun to play on guitar.

    I like the verses...sounds like classic DMB...but the chorus is just weak. Dave sounds really whiny during it; really I feel he's sounded kinda whiny on both Big Whiskey and Away From the World.

    In 17 days it'll be a year since it's last play. I just don't understand why it's been shelved.

    Not sure either. It suffered a bit when they did play it live.

    But then again, Snow Outside suffered badly too, and once they gave it a chance in the acoustic set, it found new life and is the best it has ever sounded...they mastered it.

    Give Broken Things a chance.

    Yea I couldnt agree more. This song has so much potential! I enjoyed it when I heard it last year at Pittsburgh. So confused as to why they are ignoring one of the best songs off of AFTW and playing the hell out of If Only!!

    Every time Dave writes If Only on a setlist, someone needs to switch it to Broken Things.

    Seriously.

    If Only isn't even a bad song, but you can practically hear the energy get sucked out of the crowd when the play it. Broken Things would go over such much better, and it's a better song anyway.

    Re: Broken Things

    I remember at Holmdel, the energy and the crowd was AMAZING... they just played Say Goodbye and Drive in Drive Out... then If Only starts and literally half the crowd got up for a pee/beer break and you could hear talking and conversation over the song. It was really awkward.

    Broken Things is a great song and it is missed. It's too late to even resurrect it this year.

    I'm actually listening to the Holmdel show right now. When If Only starts there is ZERO crowd reaction. No cheers, nothing.

    Wish they'd play this more often. It's a great song... probably my favorite on the album.

    RIP Broken Things. It becomes clearer with each tour that Dave's voice would not be able to handle the song well these days.

    there's no problem with them playing satellite, pnp...ants even had falsettos this year for the first time in years.

    I don't think the voice is the issue with this song not getting played.

    It's been over a year now. It's way past due. If it doesn't show up on the west coast I fear it might be destined for the Liberation List

    I'm not expecting too much from this last leg of the tour. Listened to some of 8/22 and Boyd is back down in the mix again. He was really sounding better this year and like usual you can barely hear him. So sick of it.
