And we all knew some of those early deep cuts were going to get cut from the setlist eventually, that is classic FM behavior. The minute they played hypnotized and it didn't get the same reaction as Rhiannon - the wheels were turning to scrap it.

Thinking back to what Mike did with Learning to Fly - what about a beautiful revisit/reboot of Songbird? Maybe Chris can't play it on keyboards, but I'm sure they could come up with an alternative arrangement that wouldn't leave a dry eye in the house.

Instead of kinda playing the Gypsy solo- tear into it and put your own mark on it. I want to hear the Mike Campbell version, not Mike Campbell trying to do Lindsey Buckingham.

Sadly, IMO besides the blues numbers, his playing sounds like any other player trying to emulate Buckingham when he's incredibly talented in his own right.
