Default Let it Rock Intro?

Anybody think that intro should open a few shows, i think its really good and would be great at the start of a show, just a thought! Anyone else agree?

I agree, but it won't happen. They haven't played that song in years. It is a great song though. Only die hard fans will know it.

Naw. I wouldn't consider it a die hard song. A b-side or a track off an album, maybe, but SWW has sold enough copies that the band could pull anything off it and get a reaction I'd say. Not that they would.

Christ it would be class to hear Let it rock again like they used to with that funky bassline half way through and and a bit of fun(mainly cause im listening to Cincinati 87 in the background and its an amaizing version the whole 10min plus of it)

Well they brought back Raise your Hands in 2001 and that was gone for the same lenght of time wasn't it?...

Pink Flamingoes was used to open Raise Your Hands on the Slippery tour as opposed to opening Let It Rock on the album...

This leads me to a point i've always wondered - why the biggest reactions to songs at a show are always to the singles even though real fans must be aware of the larger body of work. Yes, there are 'casual' fans at the shows, but come on, they MUST have more than just the Cross Road album. I've been at gigs where people appear not to be familiar with the likes of Blood on Blood and These Days. It annoys me that 'Bad name' always goes down so well, and if Richie sings 'Stranger..' its a mass toilet break.

Jon shouldnt be afraid of playing more album tracks as such a huge fanbase implies that people buy all/sveral of their albums (not just Slippery and Cross Road) and hence should know all their work. Sadly this is not the case, and I think there are fewer true so-called Die Hards out there than we would like to think.

meh
