I don't think so. Imagine the people thinking the band is gone (lol, no), the lights out and in the dark you start listening the acoustic notes of the song then they turn those blue lights they have and you see Jon playing and he start singing. I don't think it would be that bad. Also, who says the encore has to be all about rock?

Not happy to see the new songs disappearing, but this is the best structured art of the tour so far. No albatross moments to drag it down.

Seems that they rather play Captain Crash than a new song, what is sad. Really sad.

I'll never complain about them playing CC.

Just heard from my brother. He said it was a really good gig, with them on stage for 3 hours.
As far as I am concerned, if he enjoyed his first BJ gig, then it was a solid show.

Lets see how far we've come by Matchbox Twenty.

Great song for them to rip off of, though.

I have no problem them playing four songs from lost highway. The problem is the songs they've chosen from the album. I would love to hear:

Any other day
Last night
Everybody's broken
One step closer

I'm with you. Just replace the last two with Summertime and 'Till We Ain't Strangers Anymore and I'm happy.
