The endless encores were always one of my favourite features of the old stadium shows. They seemed to make up half the set at one point. And then the bows and handshakes and drumsticks and fireworks.
I like the covers. I know I'm in a minority, but after a well planned set, that ended on a climax, I see the encores as a time for fun, the audience's and the band's (which means a good time for rarities), and hopefully a bit of sentiment. Always like shows that go out on bringing everyone together.
So in that spirit and my wildest dreams:
I Believe
Wild In The Streets
Hey God
Drift Away
Love For Sale
Peggy Sue (Buddy Holly. I've lately been thinking they'd do a great job of this)
Saturday Night
Never Say Goodbye
