Does anyone know how old 'Extension Chord' is? Have The Features ever played it at a show? It's probably a favorite of mine, that's why I'm asking.

So many great songs that they've stopped playing. :sigh:

It was probably written in 97 or 98 (maybe?) It's among the many played with Don Sergio that they would have to re-think without the lead guitar. With some of these so old, they'd probably struggle to remember the chords and changes as they played. Usually they have to pause and play a little bit of them when they play old songs like that (in the very rare occasion that they do, that is.)

The Features have played almost all of their songs live in some form or fashion, that one included. Live recordings of it do exist.

Ah, thanks. I didn't know that (obviously). Yeah, I have a live version of it but the quality isn't all too great.
