The FM Game: If I never hear this song again it will be too soon

[bangdrum]

I love Trouble. (And I'm not even a fingerpicking nut!) I still wish he'd get rid of Big Love instead.

I totally agree that SHN is necessary. It doesn't even matter if the song comes out terribly musically; it gets a lot of people standing up for the first time during the concert.

Lindsey is doing 6 FM songs, 6 new solo songs, 6 "other." And he changes his songs more than Stevie - this tour he's doing AMS, last time he did Don't Look Down. Last tour he did Come instead of ISA. I haven't been to a Stevie concert since 2001, but from what I've read, doesn't she largely do the same songs other than the IYD songs?

Anyway, I agree with elle.

Landslide except the original
Dont Stop and YMLF
NGBA and I have very little love for Big Love



It will never happen but I would like for both Lindsey & Stevie to have set list that are all solo songs. Leave the Fleetwood songs for the Mac setlist.

Hmm, I was at last tour, and he did both all four shows I attended?

OK, I was working off the FMLegacy GOS tour page... they don't have ISA listed in the setlists. But I checked my 3 year old NYC review (at my livejournal) and I did note ISA there. So... I don't know, lol.

yeah, my understanding is he was doing both ISA and Come on GOS tour.

to be frank, as we discussed many times, i'd change a lot in his current setlist to better fit my taste, but that doesn't detract from the fact SWS tour has a great setlist - a lot of it due to the fact that new SWS songs are so great and fit so nicely the way they were incorporated in the set.

but yeah, he should do 3+ hr sets like Bruce in order to make me happy - a bit under 2 hr LB show is way too short - that's why i had to see so many

and, GOS and UTS are represented with some of my least favorite songs from these 2 albums, plus while i love TIO from OOTC, AMS is not exactly on my list of favorites. and original GOS/SYW songs are so strong but NONE of them are in the current setlist... i can go on and on

[bangdrum]

The "academic" setlist planning would probably be too difficult with a 3 hour show.

I think my original point was that he at least has more variety across tours than Stevie does... even if it's not always the songs we'd pick for him to do.

Easy setlist help for LB: For OOTC: Drop AMS. Add almost anything else. Keep TIO. For GOS: Drop Treason. Add anything besides TPT and DYMM. For UTS: Drop UTS, keep SUD. Add Down On Rodeo. Anything after that, I'll leave up to him.

Yeah, I didn't have anything at all written in my review besides the fact that he DID ISA... I think it got overshadowed by Come since they were so close together.

i'm with you on every single one of these points / choices - except my first choice to add from UTS would be Try for the Sun

Yeah, but he'd probably want to do Try for the Sun as another solo acoustic piece (unless he's up for teaching some tricky guitar parts to Neale and Brett)... which would put it front of set instead of mid-set. Down On Rodeo can work as a band song and fit where UTS is now.

And if we're talking actual first choices from albums, then he's doing Shuffle Riff and Twist Of Fate from GOS.
