“Circus”
Live @ Cannery Ballroom
January 13th, 2007

Yeah, there’s a minute of crowd-noise before “Circus” starts rocking your eardrums. Whatever, it accurately recreates the anticipation you feel before a Features show! This is an experience, okay? Yeah!

A VERSION APPEARS ON:
Exhibit A, album release (2004)

“Dark Room”
Live @ Blue Cat’s
March 8th, 2003 

The most irresistible Features song ever. Just try to resist! See? You can’t! You’re doing handclaps! And if you know the Mahaffey version, you’re singing background vocals!

“33 1/3”
Live @ 12th & Porter
November 7th, 2003 

This recording comes from the band’s all-request show. In 2003, the song was only played at 3 of the 18 concerts I have catalogued in my spreadsheet. As a rarely-played fan favorite, it was obviously gonna get played at an all-request show.

“Temporary Blues”
Live @ 12th & Porter
June 21st, 2002

Hold up, followers! Let it be known that this is the original version of “Temporary Blues,” one with completely different music. Same lyrics, different tune! Both have their merit, true, but which one do you prefer? 

Note, this is not a competition…but it’s not like I’m gonna ignore votes that are cast. Either way, it’s the Features, so we all win.

A VERSION APPEARS ON:
Some Kind of Salvation, album release (2008)

LINEAGE:
Was “Discotheque” (1999; this version shares a bridge)

OTHER VERSIONS

“Action”
Live @ The Exit/In
February 6th, 2003

It’s kind of a shame that “Action” didn’t last longer than it did. I feel like it’s structure and tone would really fit in well on Wilderness (towards the end, near “Love Is…”).
