Third Eye Blind Band • Page 29

Those three songs are fine, but it's a long record and the mid-section is undoubtedly the weak point. I wouldn't cut them, but I do skip them sometimes.

 

Burning Man? Ouch. Although I can agree Good for You is the least awesome song on the album.

 

Yeah, I thought Burning Man was pretty much considered a staple.

 

I thought "Thanks A Lot" was considered to be a great song to most, as well. It was one of the best ones live

 

Burning Man is my favorite off of S/T

 

Good for you is the best of the three, which are probably the weakest part of the record

 

"thanks a lot" is one of the best 3eb songs ever. "good for you" is rescued from anonymity by its extremely heavy guitar breakdown

 

i hated "burning man" for years but i love it now lol

 

generally that section of the record is why i considered blue superior for a long time (blue is still my fav 3eb record but i'm less aggro about how it is objectively better than the s/t bc it's not)

 

Burning Man is my least fav of the three, I love the verse melodies in Thanks a Lot (Stephan going low on the third "I woke you up...." line especially is a highlight), and I like the guitar on Good For You quite a bit. I'd def say that section of the album drags quite a bit but I like all those songs enough for them to stay.

 

I'm the fear in your eyes
I'm the fire in your flies

Love it

 

i'm the sound that's buzzing round your head

"thanks a lot" features some of my favorite 3eb lyrics which is at least partially a consequence of my penpal/crush in high school quoting the song in a letter to me

 

"Company of Strangers" is still on constant rotation for me. I can't get enough of that song!

 

Would've fit perfectly on Out Of The Vein

 

I feel like We are Drugs as pretty meh overall, but I really do love "Queen of Daydreams" and "Don't Give In."

Also: "Blade" so gud, y u no play "Blade" Stephan?

 

I wonder what the next setlist will look like. They've been fairly good about incorporating some deeper cuts in over the years. I remember I saw Anything and Non-Dairy Creamer at a show once, I'm not a super big fan of NDC (don't hate it either), but just hearing those songs out of left field was special

 

I thought it was thighs

It's excellent, their best track since OOTV

Yes

 

"Anything" was a staple the first 3 times I saw them. It's crazy to think that it's considered a "deep cut" now. They would always play an extended version of it. I'm glad I was able to see Non-Dairy Creamer live, as well.

 

Saw this band tonight, state fair show so they just 100% said fuck it.

Seeing them in October. Really wanting to get my Self-Titled album signed, but not wanting to pay those meet and greet prices ($250 for the lowest one...). The venue I'm seeing them play at has a back area where I've met tons of bands before so I'm hoping to try my luck. Only reserve I have is that they might not try to meet people if they haven't paid for the meet and greet BS.

 

Holy fack. Out of the Vein is so good.

 

lmao what a kickass set

 

Know what song I used to skim over but now really like? "My Hit and Run". Good track

 

Such a great song! So bummed I never got to see that one live.

 

I am kind of bummed that it's 2017 and I'm just hearing Out of this Vein now though. I missed out hard for over a decade...
