Alec Ferris Posted November 20, 2013 Share Posted November 20, 2013 Not a fair comparison, Escape sounds way "angstier" so it wouldn't fit nowadays. Agreed. It'd be like that awkward moment in a Deftones set when they have to play 7 Words. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jobby Posted December 7, 2013 Share Posted December 7, 2013 Why does everyone hate it live? I honestly love it. It's dull, lacks the power that it has on the record and some people are bothered that they're still playing covers when they've got better piano songs of their own.

Chagi Posted December 7, 2013 Share Posted December 7, 2013 Seriously though, why do they have to rotate piano songs with other piano songs? Why does that have to be a thing? Why can't they rotate piano songs with non-piano songs? Why is it so important to hold piano songs in a separate category from their other songs?

Why can't they rotate piano songs with non-piano songs? Why is it so important to hold piano songs in a separate category from their other songs? It's just the way they've been doing it for years I guess. It's probably also more convenient to have a specific section in the middle of the set for piano songs rather than randomly playing them throughout the set. I don't necessarily agree with how they do it, but I don't really have a problem with it either. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Why is it so important to hold piano songs in a separate category from their other songs? but it doesn't make any sense My two other favourite bands do the exact same thing, except instead of a piano section they have "slow" sections which works for them since they have more than three members and have full time keys players. The whole piano section thing made sense up until the TR tour where they pretty much just kept doing it because it's what they had always done. Before that they would always throw a few piano songs after Citizen Erased or B&H (which does make sense). It just kept things flowing nicely. Having Matt going back and forth to the piano at random times would feel weird as shit; he's already on the piano, so why not play some more piano stuff?

Slow sections as in playing a bunch of slow songs in a row? Because that does make sense from a flow point of view (except it sounds kinda boring). Or slow sections as in they grab other instruments and play those for a while? The whole piano section thing made sense up until the TR tour where they pretty much just kept doing it because it's what they had always done. Before that they would always throw a few piano songs after Citizen Erased or B&H (which does make sense). It just kept things flowing nicely. In what way does it flow nicely? Piano songs don't naturaly flow better into other piano songs than they do to non-piano songs, do they? Does the inherent sound (ignoring Matt's varying piano sound) of one instrument make it flow better? Or do you mean it kept thing s flowing nicely because there wasn't much time between songs? Having Matt going back and forth to the piano at random times would feel weird as shit He already does more positioning of himself in regular guitar songs than how much there is between a guitar and a piano song. In Plug in Baby in Rome he walked to the middle of the runway, started playing the intro and then ran all the way back, because of artistic reasons and whatnot. I don't see how sitting down at a piano is weirder than that. he's already on the piano, so why not play some more piano stuff? Because standing up is not difficult. Nor is returning to the piano later. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He does it to make it simpler in the arena shows i think, like they have the piano come up for piano songs and during other songs it goes down to allow his feedback amp to come up through the floor, it just means there's less time spent making sure the instruments are all good, checking setlists, etc and they can play sets of 20-21 songs as they have been this tour. And it does flow better as a show for Matt to play the piano outro of Citizen Erased and go into a piano song as he's already on the piano so from a show point of view yes it does flow better, maybe not always necessarily from a setlist point of view but it makes a lot more sense to bunch all the uses of the piano together than to use it and then move it, bring it back, move it etc Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But that's stupid too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
