Aloha !

The original version of Always is a surprise to me. I wonder if they downtuned it or if Jon really sung it properly. It makes me wonder why they keep playing the This Left Feels Right version of Bed Of Roses though. And the rest of the set is pretty wank.

Salaam Aleikum,
Sebastiaan

I wouldnt be suprised if it was played in the same key as the TLFR version (1.5 tones lower than the recorded original)

wonder if they did a key change like the demo on the boxset?! lol

Someone on backstage that was at the show said Jon dedictated SNTU to Richie's dad who died a year ago yesterday. That's one of my favorites off of LH so I would have loved to hear it again.

And the original Always!! YAY!!

Awesome surprise - I knew Jon still had it in him.

Almost makes up for some of the same same setlists of late!!
Fingers crossed for Youtube.

That's the point! I really don't understand this band. They make a great surprise in the setlist as Always but they play shit like Seat Next To You.

The question is how bad/good the peformance was. But it's a rarity, they played it after five years. Seb is right with Bed Of Roses. Why if he can sing Blaze Of Glory and now Always in its original versions, why there is still TLFR Bed Of Roses.

I'm curious about the European setlist which are always way better than in America.

Alright. Still a pretty weird choice. It would've been much more powerful to let Richie sing one of his own songs - like Father Time.

I think it's a year today (21st) since Richie's father died. I remember thinking that they didn't have a show booked for today when I saw the itinerary
