That song is all about song placement for me. Studio version is top 20 for me, but it can really bog down a set if it's in the wrong run of songs. Pretty typical for most overplayed songs these days. Just change up where it's played in the set, and it will get a different response.
Like if they quit closing sets or encores with Ants. Put it back in the middle or hell, open up with it! Same with Two Step. Also songs like You and Me, rather than put it in the 2nd to last mainset song, put it mid set after a banger.
DMB doesn't have a stale song problem, but they can tend to have a stale setlist problem. If they only play 50 plus songs on the reg, just mix up the placement of them more. Dave has been doing better at this, but can still throw in the most predictable setlist of any band that supposedly performs unique shows every night.
