For what reason do The Melvins not play H.A.T. songs any more?  They went much further into their back catalogue with Big Biz, even playing stuff from Ozma and Gluey Porch Treatments.   H.A.T. is only 7 years old.

Yeah when you look at their setlists for the past few years, for the most part it's Melvins/Big Business material from M/BB albums played by M/BB.  Material from HAT and The Trilogy is almost from a completely different band.  I think the latest thing they throw in is Revolve and I don't think they've done songs from albums between Stoner Witch and ASA since they've been playing with BB.

I've seen them play both "The Bit" and "Tipping The Lion" from Stag.

I'd still like to see them play "Little Judas Chongo".

I stand corrected.  Still no Trilogy or HAT songs.  I would LOVE to see them play amaZON, Manky, songs from The Bootlicker, etc., regardless I've never been disappointed at a Melvins show.  It's my fault for not seeing them when they still had Kevin.   :|

HAT rules!

The b-sides especially kicked ass!

Did they ever play any of the HAT b-side's live????

"The Fool, The Meddling Idiot" is one of the, if not THE Melvins finest moments.

It's a good example of why you need Kevin for these songs.  Not that Jared couldn't do it but it's a completely different style of playing.

They have played Let It All Be at the time of (A)SA's release. So there's ONE trilogy song. And they've done The Bloated Pope a few times. Just no stuff from The Maggot, the Crybaby, Colossus, or HAT.

Leroy

next time they tour i bet they'll go through their back catalogue a little bit more and pick some more songs. 

Like Stee

I watch that whole concert as often as I can.  Kevin rules.

I saw them play Okie from Muskogee with David Yow.  It was awesome.  They've also played Eye Flys and the drum outro of Black Stooges.

That being said I'd still love to see at least Amazon with dual drumming.  That was the first thing that came to mind when I heard about Big Business joining.

Lovely Butterfly too

I saw them close with Lovely Butterfly at the Troubadour on the first Melvins/BB tour (probably the best Melvins show I've ever seen).  It was awesome, and they dragged that drum beat out for at least 10 minutes long after Jared and Buzz had left the stage. AND gorilla masks!
