Hey,

I dont post much, but just wanted to say thanks to the boys for bringing back Love Lake. I\'ve listened to the Knitting Factory version a couple thousand times now! FieryBill says right on!

It totally reminds me of a how Here Comes Sunshine came back w/ GD.
Vince recounted that he had asked Jerry why they did not play it anymore and Jerry told him he had forgotten about it.
So Vince brought it back w/ his band The Affordables opening for JGB Halloween. Two months later GD bust it out in Tempe.

Love Lake great tune HORRIBLE ENDING

Now having seen Love Lake in person a few times I gotta say the song is great but the Blues ending is HORRIBLE. It is so cheesy i gag on it.

Really it sucks. It totally takes away from the powerful feeling of love and happiness and is utterly jarring in it\'s cheesiness.

They could end the song easily just they way they do right before the tacked on cheese puff blues.

I guess Tim is aware some people think it cheesy(Believe me I am not the only one) but keeps it anyway.

I hate to see a good song ruined for no real good reason. Until they change it I will just continue to sing made up lyrics about how cheesy the ending is while they play it. Works for me so far.:lol:

I am not a fan of the Blue Ending either, when I first heard it back on 2/4, I remember saying that it has no place in the song.
Love many, trust few and don\'t be late.

Yeah I know the ending they had was a big reason they shevled it. I just think this ending was a mistake. They have better vocals now and can end the song in a waaaay more powerful way than that blues blah.
Well Chris did ya really xpect anything less? :lol:

maybe the song shouldn\'t have an ending, just like drift off in space and into another song.

to be honest, i\'m not a big fan of *any* "blues" stuff the guys do. as much as i love them, they just don\'t have the blues. every time they play a blues jam (like the one in that rufus last year) or have a blues section, it always sounds very cliched. its one reason i\'ve been slow to warm to eppy3 and one reason i don\'t think love lake can be \'epic\'. i didn\'t know that the ending was why it got shelved, but once i heard the new ending, i had to wonder what the hell the previous ending was to make them decide that the new ending was better!?!

The blues section of Episode 3 is the only bluesy thing thus far that I have heard and not minded. Considering it\'s still a relatively new song, and it still sounds pretty good, I think it will work.

I have never been a huge fan of Love Lake.

Wow glad to know I am not the only one on this.

Well maybe a larger consensus and not "Oh great here goes Leith bitching again" will maybe convince Tim to change it.

Doubtful but you nvr know.

I\'ve been giving it a lot of thought since Leith first mentioned his opinion to me in Crystal Bay and I have to say it\'s growing on me. Granted, I\'ve only ever vaguely heard the old ending. Regardless of the ending, this has become one of my favorite songs after hearing it live.

i could do without their bluesy stuff.  ep3 barely makes the cut, just because i like the version of the 12 bar blues they do there chord progression-wise.  for me ep3 is really all the first half of the tune.
