Re: Big Whiskey Opener?
Alligator Pie

Re: Big Whiskey Opener?
Alligator Pie, or Seven, or LITHOG. The rest suck.
|
Re: Big Whiskey Opener?
Seven.
Also wouldn't mind Squirm or Why I Am. |
Re: Big Whiskey Opener?
Alligator Pie I guess.
|
Re: Big Whiskey Opener?
The stone.

Re: Big Whiskey Opener?
Squirm is the best Big Whiskey opener. So much energy!

That would really bum me out.

Re: Big Whiskey Opener?
A Grux-like thing by Jeff would be great. Then BAM into The Last Stop...
|
Re: Big Whiskey Opener?
Definitely Squirm, best song off Big Whiskey IMO.
|
Re: Big Whiskey Opener?
Saw Squirm as an opener in Charleston and thought it was a very good fit...kind of like a DDTW type opener...packs a big punch.
|
Re: Big Whiskey Opener?
Why I Am, followed by Funny the Way It Is.
|
Re: Big Whiskey Opener?
i'd rather take a piss and come back to hear the next song
|
Re: Big Whiskey Opener?
why i am is a fun opener too. caught that at nissan 2 years ago.
|
Re: Big Whiskey Opener?
I like Seven but I don't know if it would be a great opener. Still would pick it out of the list though. Maybe Why I am.
|
Re: Big Whiskey Opener?
AP or Squirm
|
Re: Big Whiskey Opener?
Funny the way it is. I think it's one of the top 3 songs from Big Whiskey honestly.
|
Re: Big Whiskey Opener?
Funny or Squirm

I think that's still the only time they've opened with Seven ... Edit: Like this — http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hvbFBGy5P5A |
Re: Big Whiskey Opener?
Really didn't like Funny as an opener and Absolutely hated Squirm
|
Re: Big Whiskey Opener?
What about LITHOG? That would be an interesting choice as an opener.

Re: Big Whiskey Opener?
squirm is the most overrated opener they have. people rave about it like its rapunzel or BOWA in that slot or something. i was bored out of my mind when i saw it open 3 different times.
|
Re: Big Whiskey Opener?
LITHOG. Slow start but it is the best song off the album.

Personally, I had it once, and was 'meh'. Works better as a 2 or 3 slot. Whenever they play it as an opener, the next song is usually something that would have been a better opener. You Might Die Trying works much better as an opener than Squirm. |
Re: Big Whiskey Opener?
I don't think there's a really, really good opener from Big Whiskey, because I want a good, fast jam to start the show, like a PNP > Rapunzel or The Stone. Or Pig, I really liked Pig opening. But I like opening songs to have a little prelude (like for Bartender or Heartbeat for PNP) and a solid jam that's got a good speed to it. I just can't get behind a 3 minute opener like Shake Me or Why I Am, although at least Why I Am is a kinda-sorta band anthem.
Squirm is too slow and so is Lying in the Hands of God. I think both songs would be much better off midset, along with Seven. I wouldn't like Seven opening either and in that video Dave started singing before the curtain got pulled up (I think PNP > Rapunzel is the best opener for the curtain pull.) But of all the Big Whiskey songs, I think the best choice is Funny the Way It Is. It has a little prelude, it's a decent, fast jam, and it's a fun song. EDIT: I wouldn't want Alligator Pie to open a show, but maybe Spaceman with that drum solo open that they were doing in winter 2010 Europe tour. As long as it isn't followed by Corn Bread. I wouldn't want Time Bomb either - the song sucks. And I don't think Dive In, Baby Blue or You & Me will ever open a full band show. Quote:
