I'm shocked by this. I thought it would definitely be the first fast song played of the night.

Can anyone think of a technical reason why they're not playing it?

I cannot wait to watch a very poor quality video on YouTube of it.

I hope you're right. But surely they won't play it on there.

Assuming that Sirens is the first night, I think Lightning Bolt or Infallible are more likely candidates for the 2nd night, but Getaway would be 3rd on my list of guesses...

If that's the case then maybe they are waiting to play Getaway live until they announce it as the next single/play it on Fallon... Didn't they kinda do something like this for Life Wasted, or am I mistaken? Maybe it wasn't LW, but I think there was another single that they waited to play for a bit...

I really doubt they're holding out on this one for those reasons. I'd bet they just haven't nailed it yet in rehearsals.

that's probably more likely. and, thinking about it, if they were gonna play getaway on fallon they'd probably want a few successful runs under their belt.

Because of Doug Getaway and the fact my dog's name is Doug, I can only sing "Doug getaway" instead of " your getaway". everytime.

I'm surprised they haven't nailed it yet. It seems easier than say Father's Son.

Sure does. I thought this one would be played at nearly every show. Hopefully tonight! 8-)

Nothing real complicated about this song. I love and really hope to see it live this tour. I feel bad for those who havent gotten to see it yet. Great song.

Maybe it's a song like GSMF that, for some reason, just doesn't really take off live.
