After watching a couple recent Eh Hee videos on youtube, I don't think it's horrible. It's slower, but I think it has a strong groove and some crunch to it. I think there was some angst over dave's guitar part... maybe Dave isn't comfortable playing the guitar part from radio city with the band for some reason... If DMB records it, hopefully he'll record both guitar parts. Maybe this is just how the song translates live, at the moment.

It's got a groove to it, there's no denying that, but I just can't get into the song. I think it was Gianni that brought up the problems with the transitions in the song, it just doesn't fit to me.

Yeah I hate the guitar part live. It would be great if they recorded a version with D&T or at least DMB+T for the album.

Gianni has a problem with every transition written in the last five years.

I found an interesting program/interview with Dave from '01. Dave discusses the LWS a bit

Almanac:
Hello Again
"Live, the song developed throughout the 2004 Summer Tour. Initial chord strummings, which Dave often does before songs, evolved into an intro complete with lyrics, which then evolved (most likely) into the song #27 written before the 2007 Summer Tour."

Huh.

Has anyone actually heard/read anything about why the summer 04 songs were dropped?

edit: sorry i didn't write anything. i heard that they dropped them because they didn't fit with the new material they were going to put on the new album (stand up).

It was Batson. He came in with his bullshit "everything you play is a song" approach and they decided to shelve those songs for that because as we all know they are lazy when it comes to the studio. They only put Hello Again on there because they had to give the long time fans something from that summer.
