I like sonic youth's choise of songs. Every tour they play a lot of song of the new album: that's ok for me:D . Some rockbands (pearl jam, rem) are now coverbands of theirselfs: rem play every time Losing my religion and everybody hurts, Pj's last beautiful song is dated 2000... I like their shows, not their setlist like a 'the best of'.

But, at the other side, for one time, i dream a cd 'the best of sonic youth' and a worldtour with all their great songs, from 'kill yr idols' to 'Antenna'. I'd like it

Pearl jam Best of setlist?
I´ve seen them 6 times, heard alive 5, even flow, 5, black 3, jeremy 3, daughter 4, wouldn´t considered that best of. So if ´their is someone who basically every groupe should be inspired of when making setlists it´s Pearl jam. they could play everything they ever done on their live shows

And of course this wouldn´t work for Sonic youth, but still it would be cool if they pull up 2-3 old songs they haven´t played for a while before a new tour. like really old ones like, starpower, love her all the time, jc, brave men run etc. It still us who feed them=)

But now I´m just so glad DV69 is back!
