I like what they did to Lost Highway post-LH tour. That said, it doesn't need to keep opening.

I loved Happy Now as an opener.

LYHOM or Raise Your Hands are far better openers.

Yeah, "Raise Your Hands" would be my choice. It hasn't opened since the SWW tour except for a few times (I witnessed one and it was great). Followed by "Wild In The Streets" maybe. That song should really return to the set, as long as Bobby doesn't play lead.

I don't especially care for the song Happy Now so I'm not a fan of it as an opener.

Actually, Lost Highway isn't that bad of an opener. Yes, Blood On Blood and Last Man Standing and a bunch of others work better in that slot, but it's miles better than Prayer opening.

I have to say though. Hearing it at almost every damn concert I've been to gets pretty tiresome. That whole section of We Werent Born To Follow/Lost Highway/Whole Lot of Leaving is just DULL.

I've seen it open twice, and I'm really not a fan of it in that spot.
