That would work if it was gauranteed that was the LAST song, but when chances are 1 or 2 other 311 songs would follow it...but that is also assuming it is during the encore, I've seen it done in the middle of a show.

Wow, name calling? How is it dumb to want to hear a song that isn't just "who's got the herb.....lets list different names for weed......who's got the herb? no real point to the song but whos got the herb" Good to know being dumb is wanting to hear a song that has some sort of meaning to it.

hahaahaha fucking classic.
whos got the herb is a better song than amber musically and lyrically.
i can't believe someone actually said play amber.
311 doesn't need any help becoming "more gay".

dumb? Just because Amber is popular doesnt make it a bad song. Its just played a lot. I bet if they never played it, everyone would love it.

Speaking of Who's Got the Herb, on last nights set in Philly for the encore it said WGTH or Six. Take a guess at which one they played.

Wow, reading this thread just inspired me to listen to WGTH. Great song.

They didn't play WGTH lat night, and I have to say it was a better show because of it.

Who's Got the Herb has a bad rap, because when it is played, it always played in the encore. WGTH is great because it is a song played for obvious reasons. I've been to shows where people can barely smoke a cigarette without getting looked at suspiciously or even told to stop smoking. At the same shows, as soon as Who's Got the Herb goes, I've seen the same security hassling fans completely disappear (I assumed to let people smoke). WGTH, like many 311 songs have been played at a good majority of shows, but unlike those other songs that you are played quite often (I'm talking about Down, Freak Out, Feel So Good, Beautiful Disaster, Amber/Love Song, etc...) WGTH is always in that encore.

It's obvious 311 is going to cater to the Greatest Hits fan (WGTH is a Greatest Hits song that never made the album) beause they are a corporate band with a small follwing, but large turn-outs at shows. If 311 really started doing things different and surprising even us in setlists, the greater good would occur, 311 would lose fans, play smaller venues, and have happier fans. But who would do that and lose most of your money?

Saying Leaving Babylon should be played instead of WGTH is like them playing Inner Light Spectrum instead of Amber or Love Song. We should be so lucky, but it's not going to happen.

311chik: I'm surprised you haven't just accepted that 311 shows are full of meatheads, stupid stoners, and frat boys. There are a few cool folk spread about, but for the most part, not as much.

If I think about the shows being full of that type of people it depresses me

At the NH show when they started to play it a lot of people got kicked out. It was simple, if you want to smoke step OUTSIDE the pavillion, but people are too stubborn to do that. In Boston a few years ago when they played it I saw a security guard rip a joint out of a kids mouth. Maybe NE is more strict about the smoking laws....I did see a security guard rip a cigarrette out of Dave Navarro's mouth when he was playing onstage, that pissed Dave off wicked bad.
