Last Stop
Will we ever get the Real Last Stop back? The song without the outro is not really what we all want.. it butchers the thing.. no last stop is better than truncated last stop…
The last time we heard the full version was Gorge 2018. It was very long with Hamilton de Holanda… an excellent version if you haven’t heard it.. But if you watch the video, Hamilton is going off on a jam , and in his own world similar to Boyd, and Dave is trying to get his attention, looking back at Carter and laughing as the song is approaching 12-13 minutes now.. Hamilton just keeps jamming.. Dave is beyond ready to end it.. I think this moment is why we don’t have the full version.. |
Re: Last Stop
That is not the reason we aren’t getting the full version these days. It’s 100% on Carter and his ability to make it through that outro.

It just is what it is. My man Carter is 63 years old. His style of playing has calmed down significantly. Just look at the end jam of Crush. That being said... "calmed down significantly" for Carter is still wicked crazy. |
Re: Last Stop
You're telling you'd prefer Shake Me, Bayou or Can't Stop over the front half of Last Stop? I'd take a verses and choruses only Last Stop over a lot of the catalog.

Re: Last Stop
This guy again? Trolling every chance he can. Piss off ya wanker! I was at MSG for both nights, the band is excellent, the songs were on point. I’m sorry you can’t experience it live like it should be, but give it a rest man.

I don’t but that it’s Carter.. because they still do tons of 2-3 song segues that end up being 12-15 minutes with no break. SMTS - ASTB - Too Much is 15 min easy.. Jimi into cover sing is 15 plus… |
Re: Last Stop
I tell myself they took it off in order to bring it back at a really cool moment, but I don't really believe that

It's completely your opinion, of course. But I can't believe someone exists who loves the full Last Stop but hates a truncated Last Stop so much that you would rather get SMLAM. I truly don't believe it for a second. |

Re: Last Stop
No way it’s due to Carter - the outro to last stop doesn’t have to be nor is by no means the craziest most taxing thing on drums. I mean unless I’m crazy feels like a song like Halloween is more of a workout than the last stop outro even though Halloween is only 5 mins long.

Re: Last Stop
I guess I have enough released The Last Stop in LTs, and the other live releases if Carter is having troubles, to satiate me. I'm fortunate I caught a full performance with Boyd, and saw it released. Not a big deal for me.

So are you saying you would have preferred if MSG N2 ended just with Christmas Song, Ants Marching? |
Re: Last Stop
I love the truncated last stop. When i listen to the CP bonus version (which is the best version btw) i skip to the next song once the singing is over.

Re: Last Stop
short version makes me sad, but it's still good. if it really is a Carter problem, might be time to have a second percussionist alongside him
|
Re: Last Stop
There's so much good music in truncated Last Stop, the lyrics are the point of the song, gives it all of its meaning and imagery. The full version is better but I'd happily take truncated Last Stop any day.
|
Re: Last Stop
Short Stop makes me irrationally angry. It is worse than not playing it at all. Easily some of the best music they’ve created, and it’s been benched like the third verse.
That’s it, I just needed to vent to people who would understand what I’m saying. |
Re: Last Stop
If we're being technical the "truncated" Last Stop has all the lyrics and verses of the studio version. It's just the reprise at the end of Spoon that's missing.

Re: Last Stop
Blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah, this band is that they're absolute peak.
This is not an issue |

I understand Carter has his limitations. But I question A) the creativity if they cannot figure out how to make it work the one time they play it every other year, and B) how much different a truncated Last Stop -> Halloween at the end of the encore of a 3 night run is for Carter than a fully played Last Stop just in general. |

Re: Last Stop
I'm calling bull on it being a "Carter issue" when N1 had a Pig > Crush encore (~20m) and N2 had a full Two Step. I really don't see any reason why they can't spare another 5ish minutes and just finish the damn song

Re: Last Stop
Would the full song have been better? Of course.
Was it beautiful to get that Halloween? Omg, yes. |

Re: Last Stop
I guess they just feel like playing it that way. It'll come back around. It's like the truncated Recently

Re: Last Stop
The last stop jam and reprise is quite possibly one of the most gratifying experiences in music. That being said I don't get how you can belove the studio version of last stop or just the song itself in general and act like it is a dud when they just play the main part of the song...
Of course the reprise enhances the experience ten fold but it is still The Last Stop. |
