Wow, I think I'm the only person to have NOIS in my top 5! It's still one of my favourites, such a classic guitar driven song, and a raging vehicle for improvisation live.

You, me, and Nautical Buffalo.

I like it live too, but I've heard it 5 out of 6 shows I've been to, and there hasn't been much improvisation if any at all.
The live songs I listed are there because of the affect they had on me at that performance. Seeing drop-off before the album came out. Hearing little bones with alex lifeson on guitar, etc. NOIS has been complacent for me. Same sound every show. Except this year it did sound slightly more awesome. Combo of the smaller venues and slightly extended versions maybe.

For myself, this is an ever-changing list, depending on which album I'm in the mood to "crank-up". Right now this is my list (I chose to take one song from an album, if only to make the process a little easier, these are not in any order)
1. Don't Wake Daddy
2. Greasy Jungle
3. We'll Go Too
4. Fight
5. Another Midnight / Chagrin Falls / The Dark Canuck (tie)

1. yawning or snarling
2. locked
3. looking for a place
4. thugs
5. dark canuk
