The board's server will undergo upgrade maintenance tonight, Nov 5, 2014, beginning approximately around 10 PM ET. Prepare for some possible down time during this process.
I feel like the interlude between Waiting for Stevie and Running really "belongs" to Running.
I heard a few laughs in the theater between the interlude into Running. It's pretty jarring but kind of in a good way.
In my mind NOTHING will ever be as jarring as Sometimes into Hail, Hail. Holy smokes!
Haha i will never forget my first No Code listen on the boombox in my childhood bedroom. Sometimes was a shockingly gentle opener and i had it CRANKED...Hail Hail came on and it nearly blew me across the room.

Still feels like a song on the wrong album, but, at least it provides a little lift, in context, so it serves its purpose just fine.
Being the weakest song on a fantastic album is still respectable.
At least the cool kids let you sit at the table.

When this released as a single I listened to it once and was a hard nope.
But in the theatre experience I actually enjoyed it and over the days since I listened to it more and more. It's not one of the strongest tracks on this album but I think it's maybe my favorite of the punk numbers Pearl Jam has forced onto albums. I wouldn't roll my eyes if they played it live at a show I was at. Probably.
Works great as a palate cleanser; arrives at exactly the right moment.
Yup...it does its part if one views this album as a setlist.
Stevie is the Pre-Encore/Main Set closer, and Running is Encore one if they chose to keep energy levels high and not cool it down with two Ed acoustic songs.

ultimately I feel like what takes this song away from being Backspacer spritz is its overal thickness of sound, the walls of guitar, Jeff, Matt, when you get a proper mix of it
