Song History

This was played by Dave solo at three full band shows in the Summer of 1995. Played for the last time in 1996 on the Dave and Tim tour while Tim was fixing a broken string. Dave had mistakenly mentioned it was the first time he had played it, and it hasn't been played since. It is sometimes called "Hold Me Up."

It is in the defunct category because the main riff has been used in Cigarette Lit, a song recorded in full for Some Devil, but not released. If it is played again, we will move it back into unreleased.
