live vocals for "snare, girl"?
 
I've been going back to 1000 Leaves era lately, and seem to remember Thurston sometimes, or at least once singing "Snare, Girl" in a live situation (but leaving the most delicate vocal parts out). The shows I've DL'ed recently have no vocals on this track, and hence are titled "Stil". Seems like a difficult song for T to sing live at that point, maybe he would be more comfortable singing it or songs like it now. Kind of a revelation at the time, and a hidden gem. Even my mom and sister like this song on the album. Can anyone point me to a "Snare, Girl" with good T vocals? Thanks

p.s. live acoustic at WERS radio (Murray era) is one of the absolute highlights of sonic rarities!

I am almost 100% sure that he never sang 'Snare, Girl' live nor did they ever play it in the arrangement used on the album (like you say, they would always do 'Stil' from SYR2).

It's possible he included it in a solo set at some point but I've never heard of it...would be interesting if so!

yeah I've never heard "Snare Girl" live, only "Stil" as it were.

Also, yes that Murray St acoustic gig was amazing. I saw them right after that. Literally saw them, get out of a taxi and head into the venue from WERS and into the full band show. HEART
