2012 A Harpua, Forbins, and Mockingbirdless year...

thewindblowshigh Permalink
Was really expecting one of these three songs at MSG this year. Can anyone think of the last time this happened? Feeling like they are saving it for something special probably festival related. Anyway, it's gonna be extra fun when they actually play it again.

patper Man I almost cried when they started Col. Forbin's at Superball. They had just played it a few shows before so I thought I had lost my chance. Nope!

I'm gonna call Phish and make sure they play it at a show I'm at.

I am calling a Forbins Mockingbird to open 2013 right now.

Harpua....who knows when that fat sweaty bulldog will show up.

Score: 4

ledzepmaster Permalink
ledzepmaster I love those songs and would love to catch another Forbins and of course my first Harpua, but I would be a happy camper for an Esther. Preferably with a longer piano solo section.

poofer im actually really glad that none got busted out.... All of the uber-rare tunes have been brought out to the fullest in 3.0...In 3.0 alone there have been 2 Icculus's! and there have been a Harpua each year except 2012... they were there for the taking if you wanted to see one... sometimes its just luck

spacing it all out it what keeps it all special. My cousin started to see shows in 3.0 and has almost seen all of them... went all out when they decided to come back. He has now seen the 2 icculuses and I tell him how fortunate he has been. it took me YEARS to get my first at Oswego and a decade or more to hear the 6/17/11 Charlotte one...
