Rant over.
P.S: KeepTheFaith2211 should stay out of this, his opinions on this song as an opener aren't valid here.

Agree completely. My loathing for LH aside, I have always appreciated them opening with a song from the album they are pushing. But being that I really dislike Happy Now, Blood on Blood worked well enough for the Circle tour (I think BrokenPromiseLand would ahve been better, but they didn't ask me). But now that it is the GH tour, open with a HIT. And no, Lost Highway is not a hit.
Use an electronic beat to walk out to (HAND tour style) and open with Have a Nice Day (okay not the best example of a hit, but it'd work nonetheless). Or even IML.... stretch out the intro or even change it up... okay now I am really dreaming. Or Keep the Faith it may be taxing on the vocals right out of the gate. But imagine the curtain rising to the bass line and swells.
If they'd just listen to me!!!
