Default Set List Issues

I hate to say this, but this setlist (although good in some points) is getting stale already. I just don't get it. Why don't they mix it up a bit? Obviously, there's the "staple" songs they have to do, but change the order up and change some of the others from night to night.

I.E. -

Switch "Sleep When I'm Dead" with "Blame it on the love of RnR"
" "Raise Your Hands" with "I'd die for you"
" "Saturday Night" with "Wild Is The Wind"
" "Right Side of wrong" with "This ain't a love song" or "Hey God"
" "Just Older" with "I Believe"

And for pete's sake, play more than 1 ballad. God, I'm a guy, and that annoys me. Play "Always", "Never Say Goodbye", "Silent Night", just do something different.

I've been to 4 shows on this tour, and I've seen the same show (with 3 exceptions) each time.

It's not that difficult to mix things up a bit. You would think it would make it more fun for them as well.

By no means were the shows bad, but I can see why people are complaining. I'm a HUGE fan, and I love going to see them. I have to be honest though - By the 4th show I saw on this tour, I knew just what was coming next, I knew what Jon was gonna say, and there's no suspense with that.

You know, if they played the same songs every night, I wouldn't care. Just mix it up, that's all. Open with Bad Medicine or Hey God or something.

Touring seems like it's becoming more of a 9-5 job to the band than something they really enjoy doing.

And you don't know how much I hate to say that. Believe me when I say, I'm as big of a fan as anyone.

I could care less what their setlists were! As long as they're playing!

If you go to every show, you might get tired.
If you go to one show, you'll have a great time.
If you haven't gone to any shows and rely on posts to see what a set list is, and you complain you're bored, stop reading set lists. You're complaining that you haven't READ anything new... but if you weren't there, your complain is kinda mute.
