Yeah, the piano segment Matt added to Dig revitalized the song.

The recent composition of Dig is what is winning my vote.

I agree but not enough to put it ahead of Dig. Dig seems to be on the right track with the current line-up.

well, i remember someone telling me one time that the tournament of tunes is to decide which is the hottest tune "right now".  Since heather hasn\'t been played in forever, and dig is now an early set highlight (with matt owning).....
i go dig

it took me a few years to accept that heather was actually heather.  I\'d hear it on the album and just be like, "oh, that\'s the song... ummm, " and never accept the truth, accept that it rules

Heather is a classic.  Can\'t remember the last time I heard it busted out, some porters show maybe...idk.

this would have been a close one pre matt, but his solos have made dig such a great song now that heather simply doesn\'t stand a chance.

Heather hasn\'t even had a chance to be played much less completely revamped. When the guys bust it out again all you na sayers will be eating your words

heather is a much better song imo, one of my favorite instrumentals by any band. but dig got such a makeover that i am temporarily seduced by it.

really, boring?

I don\'t agree with that but Dig right is a much better tune than Heather is, imo but I also have bias because Dig is actually played more regularly.

:lol: ok, not "boring" but I guess I really just dislike instrumentals in general... since they jam out in the middle of so many great songs, a slow & melodic instrumental doesn\'t capture my attention like the cute, catchy lyrics of Dig. :idunno:

Have togo Dig, for its recent revival. However, if Heather was bust out a bit, then I\'d probably change my mind.

Heather was one of my favorites from back in the day.  It\'s hard to choose, if they would just play it with Matt then I could decide.  Considering what he\'s done with Dig, a song I would normally take or leave but now see in a whole new light, I really can only make a decision based on the present playing.  Overall, though, I would pic Heather, but did not.  Could you even imagine how good it would soun, ya know cuz Matt\'s a jazz player at heart and it\'s a jazz song, no brainer.

Only a few days left and I think dig might pull this out.
Title: TOT Prelim Round: Dig def. Heather 33-24
Post by: Gfunk on October 02, 2007, 02:29:31 am
Heather Is such a superior tune, even with the new piano solo that Matt just tears up in dig. that shit still doesn\'t even come close to Heather. I doubt that there are very many peeps who have yet to vote, but for anyone who still hasn\'t voted, and for all you losers who voted for dig(;)) seriously just listen to the Heather from 12/9/06 and imagine what Matt will someday add to this already amazing song.
Edit: Fuck, I don\'t think that show is on the archive, but for those who were there, you know whats up.
