WTF These Days? Finally a proper surprise?

I agree with this, though I agree with Brian too that, if you rearrange the deck chairs and throw out I Love-whatever-Town-I'm-Currently-Selling-Tickets-In, it's at least a respectable encore. That said, Sleep is a terrible encore song, ditto for Runaway. Then again, Sleep isn't worth a shit unless there's a medley involved. And Runaway probably should be retired for a while; it's just filler to hear live.

I don't know for sure that they left, but otherwise why would the person on Twitter say "End of1st encore. Holyshit!!"?? Almost had to have left. Strange night in Fargo!

So, does anyone else remember when you were a little kid, and when you didn't want to eat your food you'd kinda just spread some of it around and mash bits of it into piles to give the illusion that you ate more than you really did? Or better yet, anyone ever fill the requisite amount of pages in some meaningless essay for school by stretching out paragraphs that had lame meaning and splitting them apart, triple-spaced? Again, to give the illusion that there's a lot more than there really is.

That's all this encore is, folks. Jonny boy taking the peas, mixing them with the mashed potatoes, and shoving them into the corner, to give the illusion that this double-encore is a lot more epic than it really is. Honestly, what's the point of having a second encore if all you're playing is Wanted and Prayer? I bet Jon thinks that he's sold the idea this is a big finish, too. Jeeze.

I gotta disagree with you here Wrath. 7 songs is 7 songs, and honestly, outside of ILTT, it's really not a bad selection. It's not great by any means, but it's not terrible at all.
