Keeping in mind the nature of the upcoming show in Mpls (Paul will play songs and also be interviewed, probably taking about some/all of the songs he plays), what songs would you like to hear? You can vote on this in poll form here: drumz.best.vwh.net/mp/artists/pwcraft/ballot.cgiBasically, you would rate songs you would LOVE to hear in this format highly (i.e. 10) and songs you would not like to hear so much lowly (i.e. 0) and anywhere in between. Note that yes, there are songs missing from the poll. If your drop-dead, all-time favorite song isn't listed, you can post it here. I didn't want the poll to be any longer than it already is (it's LONG) so I went off polls that I did in the past in winnowing the list and also common sense (by which I mean, "Dope Smokin' Moron" isn't included....). Your feedback is much appreciated!

"Don't Want Never"
An "unfinished" sculpture: Powerful, beautiful, sublime. A great song. Besides, if he played it, the ending could be a surprise!

I'm always surprised at how low Anyway's All Right ranks in these polls.
And I agree that Don't Want Never would be a good pick for this format.

I never understand how come Final Hurrah and Fugitive Kind are never dusted down and given an airing? Does anyone know of shows where he's tucked into these scandalously underappreciated masterworks?

Stain Yr' Blood + Seein' Her
Two of my favorite Westerberg tunes of all time. I'd kill to hear those...even though I couldn't cause' I'm too young.

I would also love to hear Final Hurrah - but I'm pretty sure he played it at one of the shows, in NYC, in 2002. I also wish Paul would play First Glimmer, What a day for a night, 2 Days 'til tomorrow, How can you like him. It would be great to win!

Why is "Meet Me Down the Alley" always ignored is what I want to know!
I love that "newer" song like I love Unsatisfied. To me they are like sister songs and have similar pain that makes me love PW songs so much for being so damn real...
Just my humble opinion....

Lots of surprises here.
Those ranking V&F so low must not be playing it on the right equipment.

...the opportunity to talk to a guy about what he's been doing for the last five years..honest, creative, booty shake worthy stuff!...and all anybody wants to do is relive their frat boy pasts....fricking grow up.
And there's no excuses anymore, because he's toured how many times and played the oldies but goodies for everyone who missed it the first time around.
What is wrong with people?
