Another 311 song pretty much retired....

Couple years ago Nick said how Guns is "Drudgery" and they haven't played it since (as far as I know)
Slinky will "only be heard on cd"
and now You Get Worked, "Really, that song is not very good by our standards now."

by their standards NOW?!?

that really grinds my gears.

i better never buy a 311-related anything again.

probably because it has that "freak out" vibe to it. playing that song and freak out in the same set would have noobs going "didn't they play this song already?!"

you get worked is a shitty song... but its better than anything on DTOM.

damnit man, retiring a song is gay...retire a song you play all the time, thats understandable, but songs you barely play anyway? thats just gay

he's ashamed of his own lyrics is all. the lyrics in that song are cheesier than anything in Wisconsin. but like Slinky and Guns, the actual music behind the lyrics is fuckin great and would be fun as hell to rock out to in concert. but now i'll never know.....

I've always thought "You Get Worked" was a shitty song. As for "Guns" that's always been a fave. Sometimes artists, whether it be musicians, filmmakers, etc.....look back on old stuff and they don't like it. I could easily understand Nick not liking some of the older songs.

I like you get worked better than sick tight

I have been listening to this song a lot more now since this thread...and its really doesn't make any sense to me why Nick would say those words about it. Why be ashamed of your own Awesome creativity!
