What songs did the band play the lowest number of time during live performance pre 86?

Doin' Alright, Jesus (yes, they've performed this in early 70s) and some others... I won't count what's the difference in the quantity of performings of 'Lazing on Sunday Afternoon' and 'Great King Rat' :)

iirc, "Sleeping On The Sidewalk" was played only once. It was played in the NOTW US tour.

Actually, I'll think you find that 'When I'm cleaning Windows' was a particular crowd pleaser during the band's earliest gigs, but unfortunately, no recording survives, except for the one that I keep in my pants, along with the real March Of The Black Queen BBC recording - the one with John singing lead vocals and brian playing an encore strat copy (he could afford a real guitar by that point!)

what about the most-played song?

- we will rock you...esp as from 78 to 82 it got played TWICE at many concerts

The most played live song was actually 'Now I'm Here.' Interesting fact for you!

Virtually, yeah. It's funny though, I actually prefer the live version of Now I'm here from Wembley compared to the Rainbow. This is very strange for me, but I really think that they took it too slow on the record and at the earlier gigs.

'God Save The Queen', though they didn't played it. So - 'Now I'm Here' I think...

Therefore, going back to the original thread, that would make God Save the Queen one of the least played live songs! Damn, we're good!

...and Dublin´84 and most likely it wasn´t played in Dublin´79 either, but there seems to be no recording of that show available.
