I know I've heard him do this rant before but can't remeber which boot. Washington maybe? I'd have to go through all of my boots to find it but being at work won't help right now. Wow, I guess that really was a watse of a post. Sorry

So... did Gord lift some lines from this folk song for Fire In The Hole?

checked FITH on my 1995-07-01 High Sierra CDR's
Gord rants the same lines Chris quoted but a bit quicker. Robby & Johnny just finish fading out on Nautical when Gord hits the 'turn your laterns low' line. Plus Johnny starts FITH's drums just as Gord hits the final line 'but there ain't gonna be a fire in the hole'
The SOTD doesn't have Nautical fading out at the start and Johnny starts FITH's drum-beat when Gord finishes the final line.

Great version of ABAC today, thanks MAv. This song is always great live. The extended jam at the end is always pretty awesome especially when Gord throws in other lyrics.

I didn't care for TT when I first heard it on CD or in concert back in 1995. But at the HOB in Los Angeles in 1996 on the Henhouse Tour it really hit me hard. I remember they had green lights that looked like laser beams slowing going back and forth across the stage. The kicker was in the middle of the song when Johnny drops in and the pace quickens a bit. It seemed much more pronounced than the studio version and I have loved it ever since.
I really like this version too, especially the intro, but Gord's 'hiccup' in the middle of the song kind of makes it disjointed a bit and therefore doesn't carry the full impact of the tempo change that I've heard in more recent performances. Still a nice treat to have up for the entire weekend...

Great version of Poets! Very clear and "thundering" drums. And, this versions sounds a little slower than typical! Cool!
