I highly doubt that

Only way to improve the setlist is to add "Cadilac man "

Not sure I'd want to hear that with Jon's vocals being what they are...

Unfortunately the sets won't get too much better considering that Jon can't sing anymore.

You say that but he's improved heaps over this tour. Just compare Miami to Columbus and you'll see he's far better now than he was.

I am hoping that Madison Square Garden is even better - because the reviews there tend to matter.

Chicago would seem to be the best chance for something special in the encore since LA (Inglewood). At least Always, maybe Dry County or In These Arms. And if history holds, the 2nd night encores in Toronto and NYC will be really good.

We didn't get much the last time in 2013 except for Dry County and I felt like a spoiled brat because we usually got some pretty rare stuff. We did get Thank you for loving me on the first leg but nothing the second.

I know I've done more than my fair share of complaining about the sets, but I realise even with the static sets there are some great things too.

THINFS is a great show opener - gets the crowd pumped and it's a sneaky way of putting more new songs in the set without dragging down the mood.

Keep the Faith is a fantastic main set closer. I genuinely hope that KTF sits in this slot for every show of the tour.

Blood On Blood / Saturday Night have made appearances, not as often as I'd like ( I absolutely think that Blood On Blood is a brilliant encore opener and they should play it a bit more often) but they're still there.

Lay Your Hands On Me / Have A Nice Day have been played at every show so far which is great to see. Particularly happy to see LYHOM sticking around this long.

Jon hasn't been abusing Captain Crash & Raise Your Hands, only played Crash once and RYH a couple of times so far. Those are great songs that have been really overplayed so it's nice to see them getting played a bit less, but still fairly frequently.

We have actually had a rare song in the mix (I Got The Girl was played once out of the blue).

Of course we would all love to have things changing up a bit, but the setlist that we're stuck with is actually pretty good.
