OLP songs we'll never hear live again

Question. In several interviews Raine has mentioned that there are at least 2 or 3 songs from each album that they'll never play or talk about again because they were compromised. Does anybody have any clue which songs they are? Matt maybe?

Everyone's A Junkie, Blister, and Happiness and the Fish, I think.

I can't recall. It's in an interview somewhere, but I'll be damned if I can remember when it was. Sometime after the release of Gravity.

He said something about there not being enough time... like they weren't completed to the bands standards or they were compromised based the the label or producers ideas of how they should be.

Those songs were mentioned (along with Is It Safe?) sometime between Gravity and Healthy. We don't know which songs they felt were "compromised" though.

All that they said was that "there's other songs they'd rather be playing."

I guess they haven't grasped that whatever random song doesn't HAVE TO BE AT EVERY SHOW. If they feel like playing it one night, then play it. Then the next night play another "classic" they'd rather play.

Geez...the songs that they don't wanna play live anymore are the same songs I happen to love!

Would it hurt them so bad to mix the setlists up a bit?!

Pretty sure Blister and Happiness and the Fish weren't in their list. Everyone's a Junkie was though, and so was Consequence of Laughing. I'm gonna go try to find the link to the relevant interview.

They never mentioned Blister or Happiness.

Blister..I have been wanting/asking to hear this song again forever now.. I was told recently it will never be played again..Plus some old ones..

Unless it was done with Chris- Is It Safe was never done live. I had a conversation with Duncan years ago and he said he never played it live..

Did not mention other name. Just told some old songs will not be done again> I did not ask. Only about Blister, but I think I can figure out what songs they might be..

Well, there goes a few of my OLP concert dreams...

Heavy Alibi · Post by **Heavy Alibi** » 7/29/2009, 4:36 pm

no Blister EVER again? Who told you this the band I assume? Raine specifically? Aww man this sucks... whats so embarassing about these songs to them anyway... unless Raine just cant sing them anymore?

Maybe legally they aren't allowed to. Maybe Mike Turner has ownership.
