Is this the longest active touring period ever without Crash Into Me?

The band has about 10 hits that should get played during at least half the shows, in rotation of about four per show. Hope that clarifies things. Cheers.

no, it doesn't. you have never defined what a "hit" is to you. its apparently not singles. so if you're talking about songs that are popular live, then they play "hits" even more than if they were just considering songs that are singles. but you also have no guideline for which of those songs are hits and which are not. is Too Much a hit, even though its a single? is BOWA a hit despite only getting played a few times a year? is there a difference between typical situation, which was a single, only getting 3 plays and bartender only getting 3 plays?


and again, there are already complaints about sets being repetitive. we don't need songs that get played a bunch to be played even more.

Anyone take in consideration Dave’s carpal Tunnel? That chord bothers him. He has said so in the past.

Doubt it. The Stone and Pig each have many more plays this year than Crash. Those songs hurt to play a lot more in my experience.

FWIW I define hits as songs that may still have somewhat of a radio presence (even if just at a Margaritaville resort). Crash, SMTS, WWYS, Don’t Drink, Billies, Gravedigger, Crush, Ants, WAYG, Space Between, You and Me, Stay, Grace, Too Much, Everyday, Satellite, American Baby (?), etc.

Not every single is a hit.

Interesting, don't play them often but Crash is more uncomfortable for me, I find of all DMB songs Captain is the one that is most uncomfortable

Yup and also Samurai Cop has the same type of stretch and songs like Tripping Billies and Satellite have some crazier stretches but were played this year as well.
