The fact they didn't keep playing the early songs. Okay they may not have gotten the reaction Jon would have liked in the US. But he could have a least gave it a try in Europe. Not just the Last Show.

I too would have liked them to play a show with an album played in its entirety.

The refusal to drop songs that bombed like WWWB, WFTWM(ok this got played less todwards the end), more things change (that cringeworthy speech is worth a mention too). Oh and the cane.

Get ready wasnt just great because it was rare, it was because it went down really well! Would have made the perfect opener.

Jonīs joke in the middle of "The more things change" about Justin Bieber and Madonna.
He needed to include the joke to make the song work better live.

I agree. The rap in the middle of "The More Things Change", and the fact that they actually wrote that song itself is the biggest joke of the tour.

The Belgian Crowd - Zeebrugge 24 july 2011 - certainly was a bad joke. I'd call it a big joke.

Calling it 'The Circle Tour' and playing only 2 songs of the album (in some cases)


Brokenpromiseland - probably best song of The Circle only being played once! Bad joke!
