-While I love the songs from UTTAD, I hate the studio recordings of everything on it minus Ants and #34

-SPAC isn't any more entitled to "great" setlists than every other venue (and fwiw, of the 10 shows I've seen, 6 have been at SPAC). Venue wars are ridiculous and setlists don't mean jack as to what places the band likes to play best. We all known the band loves the Gorge, but look at the '09 sets where Danny Barnes played half his album.

-The Time Bomb intro on Two Step isn't as horrible as everyone says, and the old improv intros were very hit and miss.
Solid 4th post.

I agree with #40. I think the only thing Dave gets out of it is teasing the crowd and pissing us off.

I respectfully disagree with the venue comment. Venue wars are dumb, but they are definitely bias towards certain venues.
