'Recently' = since Franz re-joined. According to setlist.fm, they haven't touched the following older songs over various Weekenders, Constructive Summers, or 20th anniversary tours. Almost Everything Barely Breathing Beer On The Bedstand Big Cig Look Alive Records & Tapes Runner's High Saddle Shoes The Smidge Touchless Wait A While Not including soundchecks, the list expands to include A Slight Discomfort Soft In The Center Any thoughts? Surprises? Requests? I'd personally love to see Barely Breathing and Big Cig make a comeback.

Records and Tapes and Almost Everything are welcome at any show I attend.

Barely Breathing is a fucking jam. I want to hear it so bad. BB and Almost Everything are super underrated imo.

Some more recorded / released songs that haven’t been played ever according to the same site (covers marked with a *). I am quite surprised that some of these (40 Bucks and Spectres particularly) has never got an onstage outing.
40 Bucks Against The Wind* At Least Not Tonight Atlantic City* Can You Please Crawl Out Your Window* Closer To The Stars* Hard Luck Woman* Hey Hey What Can I Do* I Gotta Get Drunk* Just Saying Spectres Teenage Liberation The Bear And The Maiden Fair (not counting as a cover but they didn’t write it) The Last Thing I Ever Wanted Was To Show Up And Blow Your Mind* The Most Important Thing This Isn’t Enough You Tremble

Two Handed Handshake on a Weekender, please.
And 40 Bucks and Cheyenne Sunrise. And The Stove & The Toaster.
I've only heard Knuckles live once so that'd be good again too.

They hit Cheyenne Sunrise at Massive Nights last year.
I've been to 12 shows since 2022 and have yet to hear Charlemagne in Sweatpants, which slays me. Such a great song. As for the Teeth Dreams songs, you're just probably not going to get many of them. It wasn't a good time for the boys, and I think playing some of those songs brings back some bad memories. Though Oaks seems to be getting a resurgence, which is nice.

Teeth Dreams is 10 yrs old next week. Surprised there's not a reissue Now that you mention it, I was really hoping for a decent demo of The Only Thing. The 'early' lyrics were terrific.

At the Weekender soundcheck, Craig hinted that there may be a "reimagining" in the same manner they did for HIW at the lockdown Massive Nights. There's evidently not much love for record within the band itself, insofar as (metaphorically) where they were at the time , so a 10-year reissue was probably never going to happen. It's a shame, as there are songs I would love to hear for the first time (The Only Thing) or again (Spinners, The Ambassador, Almost Everything). Having said that, I think the full version of Oaks closing the Omeara show will go down in THS folklore.

My favourite song of the entire sessions and it’s still baffling to me it was left off the record.

Put Records & Tapes in for Wait a While and the vinyl sequencing that includes Saddle Shoes should be what they start with.

Barely Breathing is so good, I'd love to hear a new take on it. The only problem with it is that the ending goes on like 30 seconds too long, which is a long time. Who the hell is the blue guy?
Almost Everything would be a great encore opener. Records & Tapes would fit more into their live show than most of Teeth Dreams. There was an early version of Look Alive that I was really into back in the day, never really clicked with the studio version...
And I am once again here to remind everyone that You Tremble is amazing. Wish it had got a release at the time
