1. Wild Pack of Asscracks
2. Tunage
3. Son of Simpleton
4. Living Daylights
5. Merge
6. Funky Bill\'s Circus Clich?
7. Taboo or not Taboot
8. Escher\'s Etchings (part 5)

there are several songs that can be put in a thread of its own as "best song to open or close a set". Songs that pop in mind are Honey Butter, Buquebus, and Phaddy Boom Baddy.

genius right? Dear members of The Breakfast: I hear there\'s a show coming up soon at Iron Horse? Damn wouldn\'t that be a sick place to bust out such a beatiful sandwich? All the young kids banned from these 21+ shows (yes I do encourage young kids to go to Breakfast shows they think its better than Phish and any other band they\'ve heard and they tell their friends and so on... u bums should do the same!)

What was I sayin. Oh yeah, simple question, simple answer, short random stream of thought. peace

Scheme. End of discussion.

Wild pack is the best encore, not set closer

bdfreetuna · « **Reply #8 on:** September 22, 2009, 11:19:04 am »

Oh yeah I meant encore.

I\'d rather have Scheme be the encore cuz then I could get home a half hour earlier. :duck:

Srsly though its like YEM.. great song but it\'s pretty much always almost the same. Heard Scheme plenty of times 5 years ago. At first I was blown away. Now I hope they don\'t burn 25 minutes playing it @ show\'s I\'m at.

If they\'re tryin to kill that much time with one song give me a Mayfly, Queeb, Puppetry, Hard Luck Harry, Rufus, EE Parts 1-4, Synergy, Mooboos, Gladys, Gravity, Tribal Funk Affliction...

You get the drift. For the most part I could care less what the band plays if they\'re on fire that night they could play Vera Street and Tricky Ways and I\'d love it. Best Scheme I\'ve heard is 2002-04-20. And it was a great set closer for that show. Guess I kinda like when I can\'t predict every section note for note

I\'d prefer TGSOT as an encore, but you can\'t complaign about hearing it at a show. From 2004-2008, it was played a total of 56 times. From 1999-2003, it was played 99 times. That\'s more than a 40% drop off. You\'ve just happened to go to the shows that they\'ve played it heavily. As for knowing all the notes, who gives a ****. A song doesn\'t have to have a long experimental section in it for it to be good. All kidding aside, you all know my love for Ahoy!, but TGSOT is one of the strongest songs these guys have written. Nuff said...

Asscracks, scheme, OE, or Queeb

best 1st set closer by far is Metropolis!

Drew_Kingsley · « **Reply #11 on:** September 22, 2009, 04:27:13 pm »

Set I: Metropolis, See the Light (inverted), Psygn
Set II: The Grand Scheme of Things
Encore: Funky Bill\'s Circus Cliche, Wild Pack of Asscracks

(Add some jams and segues, and that not a bad setlist up there, by the way.)

Don\'t forget The Chase. I know a lot of us are (or were) sick of it as a set/show closer, but there\'s a good reason why it\'s played as a closer so often.
