Wanted Wednesday: January 5, 1991 (Nagoya, Japan)

Please rise for the playing of our national anthem.

So I have a boot that's purported to be from "today" back in 1990 (Wembley) but I didn't want to start off the new year with a "Maybe this is right". The bootleg I have from "Wembley" has 23 tracks. Any setlist I've found for that date (and admittedly, I didn't look more than 10 minutes) has only a handful of songs listed. If someone has a 'real' setlist from this date, that'd be great.

Putting a pin in THAT one for now, today's track is still from This Week back in 1991, just tomorrow, not today.

There's no long intro; the track starts in with those four notes we all know so well. It sounds (to me anyway) that it's a little slow; just half a beat or so, so initially I thought the boot was damaged. But Jon's voice sounds just right, so I guess it's just a slower, lazier version.

 It's alright (sorry wrong song) -- the lazy strumming brings to mind the guys kicking back on a couple of high-top stools just leaning into every strum. A very nice mental image, if I do say so myself.

Let's Ride!
