Back it up to SHDB, Nautical, Thugs, IOD, Scared and you'd be in pretty good shape.

Also, a nod to Mean Streak, Melt, Copenhagen, AWF, and Josephine (if you could sub AWF with AMAWA, you'd be absolutely golden)

i did. :roll: wouldn't it be embarassing if you did it from memory and made an error?

Either:

from So Hard Done By to Scared,

the first five songs of Phantom Power,

or any of the five-song combinations possible between INOB and Josephine.

Cheers,
John

Ditto. Best end to any album...just to show you how good PP really is.

I'd have to go with the last five of DFN:
Scared
Inch
Emergency
Titanic
Impossibilium

Lots of the post so far have been pretty good, but I always find that there is one song in the middle of choices that doesn't do it for me. I'm not much of So Hard Done By fan, and that's right in the middle of a bunch of really good tunes. Chagrin Falls is the same, not a great tune (IMHO) that is sandwich by some really really great tunes, especially Escape (my all-time favourite Hip tune) and Emperor Penguin (a great song that unfortunately has been mostly forgotten by the Hip since the PP tour).

Which reminds me....PP has so many great songs that you don't hear live anymore. Save the Plant, Penguin, Something On, Vapour, just to name a few. I hear Membership a few years back on the Evolution tour but since then it's always the standard Poets, Bob and Fireworks. But enough ranting about songs I want to hear in their setlists...that topic has been done to death.
