Default Re: Want more new material or old material on the tour?

90%. Seriously, I'd love to hear them do the entire new album and a few of the classics. It will never happen, I know, and most of the audience would hate it, but I would be in heaven.

The reason I want it to be new stuff heavy on this tour is not because I'm sick of the old stuff (I'm not), but because I think their voices are more suited to the new stuff and it'll be more fresh and exciting. What do you think?
I feel pretty much the same. I still love I'm So Afraid, Gold Dust Woman, Go Your Own Way...but after years of bootlegs, I'm ready to hear something different.

I do understand why the band feels like they have to play the same old setlist. Joe Blow - who, right now probably doesn't even know that they have a new CD coming out - will decide to take the wife to see Fleetwood Mac when he reads in the paper that they are coming to town. He doesn't want to hear Frozen Love or Peacekeeper or Tango In The Night. He wants to hear the stuff he knows and will walk out if he doesn't.

It is too bad they don't do fan concerts, where we pick the setlist. Anybody want to tell The Knight we'll pay $1100 for that?

Mike
