And so it goes on and on
Here one day next day you’re gone
Over exposure

and isn\'t it kind of part of the epic..... how can you just delete a part

they\'ll bring it back eventually.

It\'s way too good to never play again.

It\'s gonna be a long time before they bust it out again though.

The untz jam was getting kinda old anyway.

I wouldn\'t be surprised at all to see a slightly reworked (hopefully dubbed out) version with a corresponding new type of jam attached pop up 6-12 months from now.

I hope it comes back too, but I\'m kind of hoping they update it from the way it was played with Ron... it would be a shame to keep it played the same old way it was played -

new bassist should = new OE!!

i think they should call an entirely new song "over exposure"

ps...whats with the name of this thread? is that a lyric from the song?

I always thought the phrase was "500lb gorilla"... a 500lb elephant would be pretty small.

I think pink elephants are a reference to being drunk.

yup. I saw that in Dumbo.

its actually thre phrases smooshed into one... there\'s the 500lb gorilla in the room, there\'s the elephant in the room, and then there are pink elephants. pink elephants are what drunks see, and the 500 lb gorilla/elephant are obvious topics that everyone are avoiding...

Some of the shelved tunes aren\'t even that heavy on the vocals, so there\'s no reason a few couldn\'t surface if there is a will on the band\'s part.

OE has to be brought back; for [-]heaven\'s[/-] Broseph\'s sake, it almost won the Tournament of Tunes.

Almost only counts in horseshoes and hand grenades oh wait and Pats fans minds.

Shelving the best song on their latest album: rookie mistake. Chris could nail those vocals in a heartbeat. I WILL the return of Overexposure.

Because I feel obligated to fuel the pointless part of this thread... I\'ve always heard it as the 900 lb. gorilla.

Klout has the idea, DUB THAT **** OUT!!! I really would find it tough to hear someone else sing that like Ronnie did...ser.

Chris can and will do it.
