So glad I can say we agree on something Dan ha ha! I also think Rollercoaster went down well with US crowds. It was one they actually jumped around too on the chorus even when they didn't know it. I wish they'd just keep at least 4 of the THINFS songs in the set and rotate them somewhat with the opener staying.

I saw Metallica on the St Anger tour - how many songs did they play from St Anger? 1 - and that was enough!

Ha ha..point well taken. Steve you and I will always disagree on THINFS but I still love you!! :).

I'd replace songs such as WLOL with THINFS songs. Having Rollercoaster in that spot could work really well. I'd also have scars replace Amen in some spots. Glad to hear about people still enjoying the shows when attended live.

I've said it previously, but on this tour there should be 5+ THINFS songs. If they are killing the crowd, spread them out between hits to get them back in the groove. The problem isn't with the THINFS songs, it's all the dirge in the rest of the setlist. You can still have a good setlist with 6 new songs in if the other 15 or so are bangers. WGIGO got where it was with the staging, they need to make some decent staging for the new songs. Why waste Amen/BOR in the crowd when it could be a new song to give that one it's USP?

THINFS
LWTG
GBTM
DITT
BAT

Should all be the setlist - all good songs from a live point of view.

This house is not for sale
Living with the ghost
Roller coaster
New Years Day

these should be in the set and then maybe rotate 1 other in each night

on another note why do other tracks from previous albums never or rarely get a look

Pictures of you
Thorn in my side
Any other day
Story of my life
The distance
Mystery train

A few songs here that have never been played or rarely since that album tour has passed.. mix these in instead of the same old same old!

By the way, has anybody noticed how Jon has mostly ditched playing the guitar on this leg? The only songs he plays on are WLOL, LH, WSYCGH, BOB and Wanted. He's even pacing around the stage without a guitar during BWC and Runaway nowadays.

But why - could anyone of you offer some kind of a possible explanation?

It's probably because he's trying to concentrate more on his vocals.

I agree with what DaveGodOfKEys said.
Those 2 are songs that you can move around on though.
Can't imagine moving around on THINFS for some reason.

Didn't he already ditch it a lot more on last year's your?
