I'd realy like to hear how the setlist sounds from start to finish before slating it. At least Keep the faith is still in there.

I think they probably got sick of lay your hands on me. I expect it to be rolled out in Europe though.

Talk about boring setlist. What happened to the variation?

The latest setlists are horrible. I don't understand why people still enjoy hearing ITA. I mean it's seriously overplayed and Bobby rapes the guitar solo.

The reason why people still enjoy seeing In These Arms on the setlist is because they remember the rocking version on Keep The Faith. Would the song have been recorded like it is played nowadays (slow, nasal vocals and a ****ed up guitar solo) people wouldn't love this song so much.

Every once in a while they do a proper version of it and nail it. As long as Bobby Bandiera does the guitar solo they won't nail it though, and will continue to **** it up live.

Salaam Aleikum,
Sebastiaan

And it's still a great tune. If In These Arms isn't in the set, that spot is likely to be filled by Complicated, Captain Crash or other garbage. So compared to that, it's obviously the better choice.

The sets are so boring at the moment, I'll just take what I can get.

To be honest, at the moment I prefer Complicated over In These Arms. I really think it's overplayed and it sounds like crap lately.

I was at the show. Yes, very standard (and short!) set, but the band sounded good and the only real downer was the TLFR version of Bed Of Roses. Loved the new stage setup.

Will be posting videos in the near future hopefully.

I'm hearing the crowd was quite dead in Vegas so that would contribute to a shorter show. What did you think?
