For me the main reason for touring is to present new material/a new album to the public. Everything else is revival band behaviour. The Stones did it right the last time on the 89 Urban Jungle/Steel Wheels tour. They performed a lot of the new stuff and also enough things from the past.
Then they started just to play old stuff, so I lost interest. Same with FM. If the majority of people have no interest in your new music screw the tour, concentrate on new albums and play smaller venues with no or very very few old stuff. Neil Young did it. It`s a great way to stay alive musically speaking.
A FM tour under these terms is time-waste imo. Time which could be used making new albums, esp. new LB albums.
