I listened to the album today too and I agree with you that it has potential and I like most of it. I disagree with your single choices though. I'd release Beautiful World to Top 40 (It would fit in perfectly on The Pulse on Sirius) and What's Left of Me to country radio. Amen to AC would be a good choice.

I also agree that they should be playing songs from the new album on the tour. They should mix it up and play most of the new songs (not every night, but mix it up from night to night).
