Do you know this for fact or is that your personal assumption? My personal assumption or point is...regardless of the time frame when the genisis of the song Fireflies was born -- it and One More Night and Farmer's Daughter were likely either written/performed specifically for the live album... or they were sitting in a can in various states of development...and they decided to use them for the Live project.

If Firelies was truly a Tusk outtake, why isn't it on the Tusk bonus disc? I think it's possible that those horrible renderings of Firelies that are out there are of the band working on the song--either during or after the Tusk tour...in prep for the Live album. Just because a song is known to have developed around the time of a particular album doesn't necessarily qualify it as an outtake from that said album.

oh...and please clarify what at "Gold and Braid" jobbie is!?

I have a CD I bought years ago at a fair of Tusk Demo's and Fireflies is on there along with a Mac version of Beauty And The Beast. A "Gold And Braid" jobbie is basically a song that no1 has ever heard before that was never on an album that crops up completely randomly in the tour set but is bloody successful when it's done live. A little like Tori Amos' "Cooling".
