The song is well known for its live performance and was a concert staple from 2000 to 2011. It was absent from The Path of Totality Tour setlist, a first since its release. However, the end section of the song was played directly[clarification needed (before? after?)] the performance of "Shoots and Ladders" at live performances starting in 2013.
