Did they blow their metaphorical load too early?

Very upset. That song is just so wicked!
Oh Sunny Day has to be played. It's so bloody good.

As for the main thread, maybe they have, but we can't know now. It's been what, four official shows of this tour so far? Come on, lets get real here. They've been doing exactly what they said they'd do. Songs from the first two records are being played, songs that haven't been played in over a decade are regulars.

Let's wait till we get to at least double figures before we start talking about the band ALWAYS playing the same setlists. Seriously, it's been TWO shows, (TWO!), and in different cities, with the same set.

I totally agree. You really shouldn’t judge the band after only a couple of shows (or actually 2 similar shows in a row). Give them more time to show what they have rehearsed. At least a month or two. Set lists are pretty solid right now and there’s not much to be worried about.

Interesting. Not so much the info, but the fact that they adressed it is interesting.

Agreed. It's a surreal time to be a fan.

Anyone else think Jon probably wants to fire whoever convinced him that Twitter was a good idea?

How can you possibly answer (or ask!) that question after 5 shows?

Haha I agree with you Terri, someone is probably trying really hard to stay out of his sight right now!!!
Although I suspect Jon has figured out it is a good way to see what fans are thinking,care about and don't and what songs are important to them and what ones are not.
Personally I think it's cool that he is reading and adressing concerns, got to give the guy credit for trying.

Exactly - he has enough people around him to deal with stuff if he doesn't want to. But it's a great advertising tool and a good way to keep in touch with the fanbase without much cost or much hassle.
