Is this one of those RM inside jokes, like where everyone says how terrible I Got Shit is?

Of all things Spenno does not enjoy, Evacuation is not one of them.

He said arguably!

I give it a 4, I think.

You can argue anything...

No you can't!

Anybody who hates on Evacuation or Cropduster gets extra retard points.

I'm arguing

Just heard this from the ft Lauderdale show, came up on Sirius. I was sitting next to an old dude in a Chevrolet caprice blaring his 80s country tunes, so I flipped it over to the good ol PJ radio, and BAM- it's Help, Help from two weeks ago.

I must say, they fucking nailed it. Killed it. Even Ed

Seeing it live made me realize how great this song is

knocked my socks off at Mansfield back in '03.
Been a top 15 for me ever since

The 2:30-end portion is about as good as it gets for me.

I've always liked the following lines...

"The man they call my enemy, I've seen his eyes
He looks just like me, a mirror"

I love Help Help.

I think it would be great to hear Nels Cline get a hold of it.

It is a forgotten gem.

One of my favorites, top 20 PJ for me, easily

4 Stars. One of the best songs on RA.

This is the one song that I instantly liked on an album that I instantly disliked.

Now I really enjoy RA and this song still ranks at the top.

I need to give this track another chance. Can anyone suggest a cracking live version?

Most fans have a low opinion of the Hershey show because it was short and there was such a negative vibe throughout (there was good reason for this), but I think their overall performance was superb. It was definitely an example of them rising to the occasion despite the odds. Especially if you compare it to the shows they are playing now!

This song has a really unique texture and building intensity. I can't think of another PJ song that works like it does. Boom adds a special layer.

I this song so much. Been a huge fan since my first listen of RA.

This is pretty spot on:
