i completely agree w/ Slint.

They used to play it a lot. I saw them do Feedbacker twice out of 3 times I saw them in 2005-2006, then in 2007 they did Flood for about 50 minutes (out of a 90 minute set), then the times I saw them after that it was always mainly songs from Smile (and sadly I'm not sure if I would bother nowadays after their recent output).
But my point is that it's hardly a classic album if they played it live regularly as late as 2006. That's only 3 years between them touring it and Don't Look Back 2009. That's as if Sonic Youth would have been doing a Nurse or Rather Ripped Don't Look Back last year!
