Song History
This song debuted a few shows into the 2006 tour but fell out of play within a month. After being seemingly forgotten, it made a surprising comeback at the first stop of the 2011 Caravan tour but didn't get played again until the fall 2018 tour.

On two occasions (6.9 and 6.24) in 2006, Dave opened the song with a paraphrase of the "I've got some bad news for you, sunshine" line from Pink Floyd's "In the Flesh" (changing "bad" to "awful" both times).
