Something off In The Meantime would have been a very cool surprise, but she doesn't seem to give that album the love it deserves. [/B]

"Shut Us Down" should be replaced by either a Christine solo hit, probably "Got a Hold on Me," or a Christine pre-Rumours era FM song, such as "Spare Me a Little." Or even something from 'In the Meantime' -- is "Friend" or "You Are" any more obscure than "Shut Us Down"?

I personally liked having the acoustic set at the start of the show, bu
welcome to my world girls!! i've been screming about this since the first show when i saw this eetlist, and definitely since i first experienced it live. it's completely ridiculous and i have to wonder whether they had something different there and retumbled it all up at the last minute before the tour started?

my 0.02 - they should have just 2 acoustic songs as an opener, one of hers one of his. i agree that she really just stands and mouths his songs there looking faboulous during his 3 acoustic songs, and it's a complete waste of -space in the setlist. they should do just-2-of-them acoustic to start, it's very effective (vs in the middle like Mac does, that would bring their highly energetic show to a screeching halt). but after 2 acoustic openers with just 2 of them on stage (WYWH and one of 3 his - NGBA?) they should just plunge in the main rocking set. skip Trouble and SUD. or do SUD instead of NGBA if you want guitar/voice showcase. and then add 2 LB deep cut songs to the main set - What Makes You Think from Tusk, never played other than on the Tusk tour, would be amazing and fit the highly energetic set!
