The Dam at Otter Creek live, when? Options

[l_oiseau_rouge]

Hello people, I'm a n00b, but I did my little research before I decided to post here because I don't want to make you lose your time.

A friend introduced me to Live and I liked what I've heard so far! I found a few torrents that made me happy... However, as I read the setlists on this site, I realized that The Dam At Otter Creek doesn't seem to be played often! God, I love that song and am looking for more versions. I come as a massive Radiohead fan and we have 2 amazing sites that portray each song and list their live performances, so it's easier to spot the bootlegs we should look for. So, I wonder if the same exists for Live... If no, is there a place with the boots links, like a hub or something? Thanks for any info and have a nice day.

Thanks for your links! In fact, even if I haven't heard everything of Live yet, I fortunately know more than that song. It's just that I saw that many songs are on almost all setlists but TDAOC is rarely there, even if I think it's the best from TC. Well, it's all a matter of opinions, in the end! I'm curious to know if there's a reason you have heard of why they rarely play it.

And thanks for your kind welcome words!

To me if there's a reason, it's b/c it sounds better on the album than it does Live. It's not a bad thing... A couple songs that sound awesome on CD but odd in concert

Freaks
Mirror Song
Forever May Not Be Long Enough
Lightning Crashes (IMHO!)

Some sound even better live than on the cd though!

I Alone
Lakini's Juice
Iris
Wings

They did a fantastic job on TDAOC. You should hear how crummy it sounded on the TC demo

Thanks for the info, I found that demo recently, will give it a listen out of curiousity!

For Lightning Crashes... they must be so tired to play that song. I mean, it's beautiful, but I hope they could change it enough to maintain their own interest, not only to please the fans.

I can draw my little off topic comparison with Radiohead, who feel like they must play Paranoid Android every time, even if they would skip it sometimes! In the 90s, it was Creep.

Same goes with the songs that sound better on CD (Let Down, The Trickster), but are fans favourites anyway. What you say about TDAOC makes sense... sad, but makes sense.

I can draw my little off topic comparison with Radiohead,

Radiohead and Live are not all that different. I might be getting confused with REM but doesn't the lead singer look a little like Ed? Also, they both only had a couple of hits and then faded away except to the truest fans. I still think Ed is a better singer though

I discovered Radiohead A couple months ago when I heard Creep on Rock band and thought it sounded awesome. I asked everyone I knew what album I should get if I wanted to learn to like Radiohead and they pointed me to OK computer... that album had like 2 good songs on it and I hated it. The vocals sounded awful, too quiet and drown out by the band. I had to get the lyrics to understand them. Karma Police was the only song I remember.

If you know a better album than that, point me to it bc I will give them a second chance.

NO, OK Computer had 2 songs that YOU LIKED. The entire album was excellent, amongst the best recorded over the past 20 years. Song by song the album is just fantastic, you're just not mature enough to appreciate it. Don't bother listening to them because its an insult to the band.

Go back to jerking of to your la da da da's of the shitty fucking river. The more shit I hear come from your mouth, the more I'm convinced that you're actually somewhat retarded. It's no wonder the world is as fucked as it is with brain dead zombie fucking morons walking around everywhere.

Radiohead kicks Live's fucking ass plain and simple. Their music is a trillion times more creative and progressive. They're more consistent, the music contains meaning and emotion to this day and is still relevant. While you're still convinced that Transmit Your Love is good guitar work. Go listen to Mystery and tell me how good it is, fucking retard. Jesus, just quit posting already. Your stupid fanboy ass is making me wanna puke.

Radiohead is a whiny bitch band. Their music sucks "fucking ass plain and simple." I can't even listen to the shit.

We can agree to disagree here!
