Well, Jon has always said that he loves playing Dublin so maybe that means that they'll play that song that's named......

They didn't even play it on the Lost Highway tour in Dublin.

Let's hope not eh! But yea I know WFTWM was played in Horsens but it's still been played much much less than it used to be.

Id take any album in its entireity. The LH sets + greatest hits were pretty decent, but a stadium show is not the right place for it. The O2 shows would have been perfect for this, but it never happened. A slippery full album run through wouldnt even need much of a shake up if they didnt want to do it in order

It's too bad they never followed up when they said they would do Slippery When Wet and The Circle in full on the 2010 tour. That would have been fantastic.

I completely agree. Adding something new to It's My Life would really turn it around. It is a possible bathroom break if I have to go.

I'm afraid Jon feels they can't change anything about it or they'd disappoint.

As for the thread..... I'd quite seriously be very happy if they did all of or most of The Circle live and with passion over the tour and manage to get Learn to Love in there somewhere.

If I end up going to dublin I'd be more than happy for some LH... one of my favourite albums (I'm getting ostracized now aren't I? lol)

I actually do love IML, but I wouldn't mind for them for shake it around a bit either.
It's a lame crowd pleaser to many, and them not writing the song can be somewhat a distracion, but in all fairness I do love the song. A wee tempo change in the middle or beginning or somethin similar would bring it up a notch tho.

Oh David, I so much agree with you. I know we are in huge minority, but for me TC is absolutely brilliant album and the biggest disappointment of this tour is that they almost totally dropped it. And even when they play it, awkwardly Jon decided to play regularly those songs, that are not the best of it. Of course it’s only my opinion but BPL, HN, Bullet, TIMS, LTOR, LTL should be the regulars on the set lists, not WWBTF, WFTWM or ST. “The Circle Night” would be my dream, but there’s no chance it will happen unfortunately. The least they could do would be changing LH songs for the ones of TC. It seemed they were on a good path at the beginning of this leg, but now we’re back at LH tour. Hopefully Jon will drop it in Dublin and play more of TC songs for me (I wish)

That is probably the most frustrating detail of this tour, the fact that Lost Highway is getting way too much set time while The Circle dwindles away. I wouldn't mind LH getting as much time as it does if The Circle were getting more time.
