Old Dirt Hill should be wiped out

Post by DmBCrazy753 »

I went to the first two concerts of the winter tour. Minneapolis and Omaha. Both of which i had to hear that stupid drum pattern start off BOOM BOOM CHI BOOM CHI ahh what a crowd killer. Where i was seated on the floor it looked like half the crowd took a seat or bathroom break as they heard the song begin. Shouldn't that clue them in to maybe make the song a little less overused. Im not against them playing ODH but they seem to maybe not get a hint of its overuse. What do you think?

I'm not a fan of it during concerts to tell you the truth. I mean i like the song but it just doesn't do it for me live. It's great Dave and Tim however.

They probably took a seat because its not a lively jump around song (or they disliked it) its much bette live then on the album and not that bad of a song IMO.

They ought to play EWU more. That song is so much better live.

also, WAY overplayed. it's kinda on par with WAYG. an okay song, but way too overplayed for the quality of a song. and in way too many encores.

it might be okay if he came out for the encore and played it solo. that would be pretty cool....actually, that would kick ass

*EDIT
1700 posts too. only taken three years. eh big wup, just felt like saying it

Thats the problem with DID, it is so quiet that it often has trouble fitting into rocking sets.
