Default What I Don't Get?

What I don't get in all of this is.............

WHY DO THEY HAVE TO PLAY THE SAME SHOW EVERY NIGHT?

We can solve the hits v. no hits issue by having a revolving list of songs by show. They want to sell more tickets, you get people going to multiple shows, and paying more for it too if there was variety between shows.

Let's be honest these songs are the staples largely....

The Chain
Dreams
Rhiannon
Tusk
Landslide
Go Your Own Way
Don't Stop
Never Goin' Back Again

(you can make arguments for a couple others that's fine, but for the sake of this discussion let's say those 8)

I do like hearing the hits...I really do, but I don't need to hear them all, and a I surely don't need to hear them all everytime. Why not rotate through that list and play 1/2 of them on any given night.

Then take this next list, of near staples or singles....

Second Hand News
Big Love
Sara
Gypsy
I'm So Afraid
Silver Springs

And rotate these and play 1/2 of them a night. That gets you to about 7 or 8 a night, and leaves room for about 12 songs to have fun with...imagine something like this.

Night #1
