Technically they last played Minnesota in September 2016 where they played Who Says, THINFS, Knockout and Bad Medicine, although the last gig in St Paul at the Xcel was on the BWC tour in April 2013 (They'd managed 2 nights here on the Circle tour).

02. Knockout
03. Bad Name
04. Lost Highway

One of those weird ones early in the tour with Bad Name opening, which didn't work at all until they finally put Water in it's place (in fact, 2 songs after this Water would be the opening song and stay there)

Tonight's Support: Step Rockets

Strap yourselves in for another copy and paste setlist on another uninspired (Setlist-wise at least) US tour. Fingers crossed, yet again, for something to be added to the set- especially Born Again Tomorrow FFS Jon.

Everyone going, have a great time.

Why didn't it work ?

Just my opinion but it just seemed weird jumping into the song, especially as it had been no. 2 for so long. Something seemed missing. I recall the first few bwc shows lacking a bit of flow.

I see. I think that it is weird because we are so used to it being the second or third song for a long time, but for 95% of the crowd I think it's a great start.

It makes no sense why they skipped Milwaukee. They could have came here from Chicago, then onto Minneapolis, or at least Madison. Oh well.

I had tickets for this show, but then I moved to Washington DC for a job. First Minnesota show I've missed in a really, really long time. I thought about heading up to the MSG for one of those shows, but with the setlists and the cost I couldn't justify it. Hopefully they play near me on the summer leg, if there is one. Hope Minnesota gets a good one tonight, we have definitely gotten many great shows over the years. :)

Friends Bill and Holly are going. Bill's favorite song is Saturday Night. I hope he gets it.

Today is the release date anniversary of 7800 Fahrenheit... what are the chances of something off that album getting played? :p

Less than 0.000000%
