 Tour: Experience and Innocence tour
Songs played: 28
Audio recordings: 2
  1. Listened in to the show last night and having missed the previous 3 really enjoyed it, performance was of a good standard. However, I think there is no defending having no variation except for to drop a song for a night 2. From city to city they can play the same Setlist every night if they want but to not even play 1 different song and shorten the Setlist on the 2nd night in the same city is poor form. The only good way I can look at it is I’m going to 2 shows and i’d rather they played acrobat both nights than drop it one night and bring in say mysterious ways. They could easily have played NYD though or ABOY having dropped RFD from the Setlist without replacing it.

    can easily be defended and has happened before. It is what is, still 25 songs, there were lot of Elevation shows that only had 19. Even with rotating songs from night to night, the total was less than we have now.

    This isn’t the elevation tour though, offering nothing new whilst taking a song away is poor from the band. From people who have only went to one show and paid the same amount as night 1 they’re getting a song less and for people going to multiple nights in the same city they get nothing new, it’s a lose lose for night 2.

    but first night they got a song more
  7. If you rotate even one song then it’s a partial win win because you get the same number of songs both nights and at least there’s something new. If they even kept red Flag Day then at least night 2 get the same as night 1.

    On the other hand, the number of fans who go to both nights must be 5% or less.

    yes, but night 2 is not always the winner. This time it was night 1. Night 2 still got 25 songs. And as I've said before quantity doesn't even matter that much.

    Why not have no winner and an equal Setlist?
  11. Marriage in Vegas.

  12. It's not a contest. But from fans who were there both nights most prefered night 2, as the audience was much better/energetic.
