andrewrose What this case is missing (at least according to these posts), is some instances of established precedent. I have not done a thorough perusal of multiple instances of Tweezer in a single show on the .net, but I know there are many. Are those cases so different than this one? The first example I randomly explored, the little Tweezerfest on 7/13/94 (setlist below). The sbd can be followed on Phistracks. Following Tweezer -> Julius, the band clearly returns to the Tweezer theme (after 6:36 of Julius), but do they do so as an entire unit? And given that after about 10 seconds they go to some jazzy interplay that's clearly more like Julius than it is like Tweezer, why is Tweezer listed at all in the setlist and not considered a tease? Or if it's not a tease, why not Tweezer-> Julius-> Tweezer-> Julius? The answer we might give in support of the existing listing for 7/13/94 is that Tweezer is or was the jam vehicle, and the tendency with sandwiched songs is to list the return to the theme of the originating song/jam vehicle in question as a full fledged setlist item. I'm sure there are other instances that better establish precedent here. All of which is to say, I'm not trying to take anything away from Prince Fuckerpants, and I've always kind of liked the guy. It just seems to me that in so doing we're neglecting a pretty hefty case-file with respect to the ol' Queen Tweez.

ORRRR

Trey needs to play the full Tweezer riff in key to qualify as a setlist-worthy return to Tweezer proper, however brief. ...?
