9. Queen of the Furrows(21) - "This song is picking up momentum". That was my quote from the last Stat Pack 2. I recanted in Stat Pack 3, but now I'm recanting the recant. 7 of 18, which is High Times for the Queen. A good song that along with
Honey Please and
Country Day, deserves more concert play.
10. The Exact Feeling(18) - 6 of the last 26. Hey, at least it's getting dusted off. That's more than I can say for the 2 songs below. I didn't even need to change my comments from last time.
11. Speed River (11) - Speed River has froze over. 0 for the last 41.
12. Country Day (7) - I guess it was swimming in the Speed River when it froze over. Already a rarity. Too bad.

Notes:
NOIS has opened the last 13/26 shows. Not an ideal bathroom break spot, but feel free to linger outside a bit longer or to take some extra time for your indulgences. I can't believe how much they play this song. I mean if you have to why not flop positions with
Blow at High Dough every once in a while. Walk out on stage and open with
Blow. Why not? No one will see that coming. Then you can get off to
NOIS in a one song EPIC encore. Old school style. I'm not even going to bring up
Courage...

If you can get 3:1 odds that Love won't open the show, you gotta take it. You will lose this bet over 1/2 the time, but when you win it will be worth it. Just sayin'...you're there, might as well place a bet or two to pass the time.
