First thing I think we all have to remember is that Jon does not exactly have the best judgement when it comes to understanding what his best songs are. I mean, this is the same bloke that did not want Prayer on SWW and left EOFBH off of it. While at every concert he plays, he somehow seems to fit in Captain Crash and WSYCGH.

However, at the same time I think he decides a lot on what the US market likes, hence we hear WSYCGH every damn concert while Hey God/STBI/Dry County etc. never get played.

So in all I think the band really base what their fans want, on what the US market likes. So in turn they judge the These Days era as a bad one.
