Look, I returned to RM on a limited basis after a year off. No way I'm diving into tourney play.

Besides - if ain't "you think I ain't worth a dollar" then I don't care

Great set list, although I'd take Misfit over Flow any day of the week.

Crazy talk.

Go With The (Even) Flow at this point.

Pfft. As if Queens would ever roll out anything as corny as Ten.

I feel like even though every QOTSA album is good to great (except Villains), nothing is ever going to dethrone SFTD and Rated R from my 1-2 favorite spots. Too much history and 2 decades plus of listening really just solidifies those (LC is great and a 3rd place for me though).

My issue remains that the second half is so much more interesting than the first. The verse riff has swagger, but it seems a little basic. Still feels like a bit of a speedbump to me.

I guess it's not easy being sandwiched between Time & Place and Carnavoyeur.

I find the lyrics a bit so so. Other than that it's pretty enjoyable.
