"On With The Show" Re-vamped
I know hypothetical setlists are, really, a waste of time. However, I can't help but thinking that if FM had perhaps taken it a little easier with the amount of dates they were playing and, say, only booked a couple of dates per week, we could have gotten a much more varied and slightly longer (actually 3 hours worth) setlist.
With that mind, what would be your new, re-vamped setlist (30 songs / 3 hours): Mine: 01. The Chain 02. Say You Love Me 03. I Don't Want To Know 04. Second Hand News 05. Dreams 06. Eyes Of The World 07. Rhiannon 08. Everywhere 09. Tango In The Night 10. Seven Wonders 11. Little Lies 12. Big Love - Acoustic 13. Landslide - Acoustic 14. Never Going Back Again - Acoustic 15. Over My Head - Acoustic 16. Gypsy - Acoustic 17. I Know I'm Not Wrong 18. Tusk 19. Think About Me 20. Sara 21. Oh Daddy 22. Gold Dust Woman 23. I'm So Afraid 24. You Make Loving Fun 25. Go Your Own Way 26. World Turning 27. Don't Stop 28. Silver Springs 29. Songbird 30. Blue Letter I think that this would more than fit the bill for what this tour is about. Rumours played in full, though not altogether, with sections devoted to Tusk and Tango. Nothing really rare, except I Don't Want To Know, Tango In The Night, and Think About Me but I think this would make a lot of fans happy. Possibly too long, but if the band paced themselves they could pull this one off. If only we could have control... Also, I think that Lindsey needs a vocal break in between I'm So Afraid and Go Your Own Way. If the band ever tours again, I hope that this is rectified. He sounds absolutley beat by the end of GYOW.

It should be called the "Pipe Dream Tour"
I would add the deep cuts from Tusk from Christine Never Forget tonight Over and Over Never Make Me Cry Honey Hi Brown Eyes And the gems from Mirage Love in Store Hold Me Straight Back From Tango Isn't it Midnight Tango in the Night Others Drop Never Going Back Again for Save Me a Place Drop Sisters for Sara Crystal |

Why needs to be on any set list.

Completely agree. Replace "Over My Head" with "Why" and "Never Going Back Again" with a Buckingham/Nicks tune.

1 The Chain
2 You Make Loving Fun 3 Eyes Of The World 4 Thrown Down 5 Everywhere 6 I Know I'm Not Wrong 7 Sisters Of The Moon 8 Tusk 9 Think About Me 10 Seven Wonders 11 Say You Love Me 12 Sara Acoustic: 13 Bleed To Love Her 14 Landslide 15 Races Are Run Mick plays the "cocktail kit": 16 Honey Hi 17 The Ledge 18 Dreams Then the band returns to their regular stage setup: 19 Hold Me 20 Gypsy 21 Second Hand News 22 Little Lies 23 Gold Dust Woman 24 I'm So Afraid 25 World Turning 26 Go Your Own Way Encore: 27 Blue Letter 28 Don't Stop 29 Rhiannon (start with a piano version, with only Stevie and Christine, before the band joins in) 30 Songbird ------------- I wanted to add Isn't It Midnight, Oh Well, Get Like You Used To Be, Angel, etc. but it is hard to come up with a set that doesn't omit too many big hits, equally represents all 3 songwriters, and has a satisfying flow/structure to it that feels right. |

I just really, really, really wish to have Songbird and Seven Wonders back. I have never heard them live and they are two of the most magnificent songs ever written.
As for unrealistic hopes, I would like to see Storms, Steal Your Heart Away and Goodbye Baby added. I mean really, please replace Sisters of the Moon with Storms. <3 |

I thought the set was a bit clunky in parts the way they have played it....I just felt for whatever reason, the same songs just rearranged into a different order may have worked better. I also agree that cutting the number of songs down and adding Christine back in has really limited the amount of deviation from the normal warhorse heavy set. I would have gone back to 26 songs (that's how long The Dance Tour was) and broken the slow stuff up a bit more...and also did a little better job of spreading the set out to the non-FM/Rumours albums.

Really? What's so great about Sisters of the Moon? :S I mean it's a nice track but, even being a huge fan of Stevie, I feel no emotional connection to it whatsoever... it doesn't even have a catchy melody. :/ I actually think studio is better than live. |

Besides opening with "The Chain" and MAYBE "Dreams" early in the set and now that Christine's back, "You Make Loving Fun", all other Rumours songs should by NOW be taken out of the main set & relegated to encore tunes. Leave the main set for non-Rumours deep tracks & new unreleased material. Time to get out of the "nostalgia rut".

Pipe Dream Tour is right
Having missed the Unleashed show, I'd drop just about anything to hear Storms live. There are a lot of Christine songs that could slide in, Hold Me (the demo version would be GREAT), Why, Isn't It Midnight, Believe Me could work, I'd even like to hear her do Nights in Estoril but that would be the pipe-iest of dreams. Sara could come back and some Mirage Lindsey tracks would be nice. Book of Love would do it for me. Sad Angel, Crystal in the acoustic set, Steal Your Heart Away. I'd also like to hear What Makes You Think You're the One just once. And i saw this somewhere else, but I agree, the last chunk of songs needs to be rearranged so Lindsey isn't breathless during Don't Stop. Cut him some slack.

And her tone quality isn't good on it. I love the tune.. Rather hear Straight Back or Sweet Girl...
