The original version of "Jigsaw" was very dark and heavy and all electric guitars, more like "Bodysnatchers". I was surprised when I heard the album version and it had a lighter feel and Thom had switched to acoustic guitar, which is kind of odd. I like both versions though.

Somebody did once. I just assumed it was you.

Oh yeah. Some people prefer the album version, including the band themselves, but they are all full of shit.

I don't know...This is good and all, but it doesn't accomplish much different from the studio version, to my ears. The intensity ramps up more in the second half of the song, but I think that might have fallen flat on the album, after heights of Bodysnatchers and Jigsaw.

I can't say I prefer one version to the other, but I think the studio cut is a better fit as the album closer.

I hadn't heard that Basement Tapes version of Motion Picture Soundtrack before - prefer the album version. Just like with Videotape not only is a better overall song, but works better as an album closer

This is great news. The Shrine is across the street from where I went to college. Saw many amazing shows there. What a perfect venue for them. Sure, it sucks they're not doing more shows, but I'm not surprised at all. I think their "hit every major urban area in the US/EU" days are likely over. Definitely making the trip for this.

Is it conceivable we could spend a couple nights there, take in some sights, and attend the show without being at any serious risk? Or is it one of those cities where you're sort of expected to watch your back at all times?
RIP Mr. & Mrs. trag

I hate them so much.
How thoroughly vandalizing a once-gorgeous song with random clicking sounds constitutes "pure emotional sentiment", I will never understand. They must have been smoking some serious crack that day.
