Walk A Thin Line - in 2013 setlist - yes or no?

[elle]

it is not a big secret that i would LOVE to hear Walk A Thin Line (the whole song!) live and think it would be just fantastic if it would be a part of 2013 FM tour setlist.

poll question - would you like to hear Walk A Thin Line in 2013?

here are 2 videos of the only live version ever of WATL (one verse that LB did as a request during his one man show in Chicago this year) -

I'd like to hear it. I'd be happy with any Lindsey-Tusk tracks. It could be done really nicely with just the 4 of them - Stevie doing harmonies, John doing his thing and Mick doing sparse percussion/drums.

Sure, why not? Wouldn't kill me if it wasn't in the set list though.

WATL is my favorite Lindsey track on my favorite Mac album . If it's selected, I'll likely just enjoy it on youtube... I'm over the Rumours Rehashing.

[McTrouble]

I voted yes! Anything to keep Elle happy!

Not really a WaTL fan.. Would love Save Me a Place or That's All For Everyone..

ha, my 2 least favorite lindsey-songs on Tusk - we must have a diametrically opposite taste in music.

re Rumours, i am going for eternal optimist option and still hoping against any better judgement that they'll change up a bit more than just pulling out one deep cut from each of the songwriters...

If I'm going Tusk (and that's where we seem to get our concert extras from Beautiful Child, I Know I'm Not Wrong, Storms), then I'll have to say The Ledge or What Makes You Think You're the One.

Of course, WATL is more likely than any of those two, so if I were an oddsmaker in Vegas, I'd put good odds on WATL, but it's not what I want.

I voted No, but I do like the song. Actually I'm not sure, but my point is that would like to hear other never played live songs, like Tango in the Night.

Sorry elle, I had to vote "No". I'm certainly intrigued with Lindsey and Stevie adding new yet old songs to the setlist, but Walk A Thin Line isn't one of my fav's. My fav Lindsey/Tusk song is Save Me a Place, wouldn't mind that one!

nothing to be sorry about - i'm actually really pleasantly surprised with the poll results so far and how many people seem to really love WATL!!

before Mick saying how WATL is one his favorite 10 songs he ever played on, i thought everybody in this world but me loves SMAP and hates WATL. so all these votes for WATL (23 people for WATL vs 11 people who's rather FM dig out a different deep track) are actually a great and rather unexpected result!!

thanks everyone for playing!!

Yaah, I think she even gave it a nod in Mirror, Mirror.

If I remember correctly she singled this song out when asked to name a Tusk song of his that she liked. She was disagreeing with the notion that she just hated his music and said it was just the opposite. She said she does ballet to his music because he's got beautiful instrumentals. Just his lyrics . . . not turning her on.
