I voted "only in concert" but actually, i still like it studio too and never get tired of either. . . I just like it much more live!!

One of the few songs where I change the channel when I hear it.. or bathroom break at a concert.

Just heard it toooooo many times.

I can stomach it, I suppose, but I really wish he'd give it a rest and play "Distantly In Love", "Somewhere Over China," or "Cowboy In the Jungle."

I love the song but then I also love cheeseburgers (see avatar

)
I don't like the way it sounds live so much though.
btw
Never went to the restroom during the actual show.
My potty break ("if" I go) is what is known as intermission

Burned Out on this one.... I can still "tolerate" it... but I dont care to hear this one Live or recorded anymore... heard it toooooooo many times
But it IS a "defining" song at a concert.... when those who sat there during the majority of the set list like deer in the headlights suddenly come alive for this one

Damn Yellow Fans

I wish he'd play something else but now with the restaraunt chain that ain't happening. This one's in the setlist forever.

Again, another of the standards that I like both the studio and live versions of but I agree, it could be dropped from the setlist from time to time to make room for the lesser played stuff.

Speak for yourself!
For those of you with shot-glass sized bladders, you may wish to consider a "Sneaky Leaker"...which are now available with leg bags!

Never leave your seat again!

Also one of the advantages of having lawn seats.

I can't believe all the responsed I'm reading from folks who actually have to take a bathroom break during the show!

For heaven's sake, use the facilities right before the show starts! lol...
Maybe it's because I only get to see him once or twice a year, but I am NOT going to miss anything because I can't control my bladder for a few hours. Never know what you might miss

.
As to the poll, I like the song and don't mind when I hear JB perform it at shows. I've said it in another thread, but it bears repeating: There's ALWAYS someone at a JB show who has NEVER seen any of his songs performed live. Keeping that in mind, I don't mind hearing the "overplayed" or "overrated" songs. However, I really enjoy hearing the songs that only only a true Parrothead would know
