Live Song of the Day #1: Shit Towne, Post any interpretations, memories, comments, questions, etc Options

[edstipe]

On Friday, WaiteratCliftons suggested we bring back the old Live "Song of the Day" threads since we've had an influx of noobs and it might be interesting to discuss each song again on the new board.

So I'm going to tentatively start the threads again and see if there is any interest in them. If so, feel free to post ANYTHING you want related to the current song of the day -- interpretations, memories of the first time you heard the song on album and/or in concert, questions, comments, media files, or anything else you wish. If not, hold your tongue and I'll happily stop posting new songs.

By the way, I'll be RANDOMLY choosing a new song every day (basically whichever song pops up first on my iPod, which is always set to random).

So the Live Song of the Day #1 is: Shit Towne.

Discuss.

I was hoping to hear "Shit Towne" at the L.A. show on May 24th, but unfortunately the guys didn't play it. It became one of my concert favorites after I heard it the first time live. I really like how the band extends (for a few seconds) the part where Ed sings, "The mailman visits each of us in time"; the few times I have heard it in concert, Gracey threw in a couple extra beats after that line, and Ed stretched it out to "time - time - time." Does anyone know what I'm talking about? And did they continue to play it that way during this tour? (I noticed it came up in setlists a few times...)
