TTFTS and FDJ live?

Do you think we'll ever hear To Try For The Sun and Flying Down Juniper in a live setting? They're the only 2 songs from UTS which haven't been played yet at some point or another. To be honest, if he never does FDJ live I'll not care since I don't know how well it would come across live, but TTFTS would be really cool to hear done.

Personally I'm glad that so many of the songs from UTS have been done live because there are plenty of band I know that play maybe one or two songs from their newest album and fill the rest up with the "classics and hits" and it can be pretty depressing. He's done 7 of them at some point on tour for the album and two of them (SGCYM and IAW) were only done for Soundstage. I think it's so cool to see him do so many of them when he could have easily filled the set with more Mac stuff and just done one or two of the new ones.

I don't care much for Flying Down Juniper, but I am always interested in hearing a live arrangement. I'm very open-minded.

But I'd love a live rendition of To Try For the Sun. It's one of my favorite tracks on the album.

I would give anything for Lindsey to cover Hurdy Gurdy Man!

Are you listening, Lindsey??

Oh god, I love Juniper..it's so lush and gorgeous and I would love to hear it live. He would prob do the most amazing arrangement for the live piece. $.02

If Under The Skin does well live-which it does, Juniper will too. I really can't split those songs up. I love them. They're sistersongs like Not That Funny and IKINW are brothers.

I've been dying to hear "Try for the Sun" live ever since I first heard the GOS version a few years ago. I think it would be incredibly moving and relevent for Stevie and Lindsey to do this song during the "acoustic" set (along with Gypsy!), with Stevie providing slight backing vocals "Red Rover" style

. Lindsey should introduce the background story of the song so I think everyone would "get it" and have a good response even though it is a "rarer" song that they seem so afraid to do

(Why did I write that like a Zagat review? Lol.)
