In 2001, for the Trouble in Shangri-la tour (most recent album), Stevie performed:
"Planets Of The Universe"
"Every Day"
"Sorcerer"
"Too Far From Texas"
"Bombay Sapphires"
"Fall From Grace"
That was pretty ambitious! I know in Dallas all of the new songs were received enthusiastically, but I think that wasn't true everywhere, and a few of them were dropped as the tour rolled on. I'm glad I got to experience them all!
Just like Stevie kept trying to revive "Running Through The Garden" and "Destiny Rules" in both 2003 and 2004, neither one "stuck", despite being fresh new songs to perform. I know WE want to hear everything NEW NEW NEW, but maybe Joe Public can only take 3-4 "beer/bathroom songs"?
