I know. I don't dislike that song at all, I'm just kind of ashamed of the stigma it caused . But I look forward to hearing it with him.

If Big Love thru Gypsy are all done acoustically, or with the band all front center of stage, I'd be slightly disappointed. Hopefully brown eyes and gypsy are done full band, or better yet Big Love (unlikely).

Was hoping for Seven Wonders and Think About Me.

Not much representation from Mirage.

I hate to be a skeptic, but... remember how we were JUST trolled with multiple track lists for 24KG? Obviously the songs in the Rolling Stone image are a good bet/locked, but as far as this full list from a tumblr leaking information... I'll believe things after the first show.

I know we're all a bit disappointed with the lack of creativity in this set-list, but remember that some of these songs we haven't heard played since the last millennium!

How great is that!

The problem is the lack of creativity which just spurs on the fact this seems incredibly real.

- We know for a fact Brown Eyes has been mentioned.
- We have the tracks listed in that order in Rolling Stone.
- We know it's essentially going to be a Greatest Hits tour again.
- The only surprises on that list are two Christine numbers, one of which we already knew of.

It all fits the bill, really, and that's whats scary. Would it kill this band to get a little more creative with their sets?

I honestly don't know what's more shocking; the fact Don't Stop isn't in the encore section or the fact they used it to replace Stand Back.

Hopefully Gypsy's acoustic, like the 2000 benefit version in a slightly lower key. IMO it's lost a certain magic since Stevie has pretty much dropped most of the high parts from it, even more last year!

I'm just generally excited to see Christine's songs back, considering it seemed impossible for a while.

Really? I think I enjoyed "Gypsy" more last year than ever (although I didn't see the acoustic version in person).

That set list looks too suspicious to me. I can't see them doing Don't Stop before Go Your Own Way, also I can't see them NOT doing Stand Back.

Yes, but on the other hand, using all that existing information makes it easier to troll a bogus list.

agree. i have no idea whether that list has been trolled or not, but it just used all the info from the 2 instagrams posted in the last couple of days, and the only addition that was not there is Gypsy i think.

as far as the songs they supposedly tried and dropped, anybody can make up whatever they want since not many people will be able to fact check that.

[bethelblues]

I don't think it's trolled. It's too close to what we would expect from them. 23 songs, songs in the right places, little to no changes from last time, no probing the back catalogue.

Right now there are only 7 songs different from the 2013 tour. That's unacceptable. It shows how much Stevie and Lindsey are stuck in their ways, and frankly how little time and effort they spend preparing for these tours. With so much of the same, they'll be sleepwalking through the songs.

Also, it's too short! Didn't The Dance have 26 songs?

don't know but the last tour had 24 i think.

setlist seems close to correct, because those are the songs announced on that FM instagram account in the last day (although they've been pulled since?), as well as order being visible in that RS pic. i think any one of us who paid attention would probably construct this exact same setlist.

so yes, the person who posted it can be a troll or in the know, really hard to tell when all the info is already out there, other than what songs were rehearsed.

anyway there seems to be 0 surprises in that setlist. possibly Little Lies was a bit unexpected because they've never played it live with LB, but it was one of their biggest hits so would make sense for a yet another Greatest Hits tour. and i was really hoping for Hold Me, also a huge hit, so that's a disappointment not seeing it mentioned in any announcements.

Lindsey is the big disappointment here. At least Stevie is going to do SOTM again. I Know I'm Not Wrong has been over played so much in the past, I can't believe he's going that again.

agree.

some stats if this list will be it, which seems plausible:

• there are 7 songs by each of the 3 songwriters.
  
• there is one co-write between LB and CM (WT).
  
• there is one co-write from the whole band (The Chain).
  
• Stevie will change zero songs since the last tour, just dropping 3 (Sara and Stand Back - i'm extremely happy about this, especially Sara and very pleasantly surprised if the Stand back dropping is true; she is also predictably dropping oldie Without You).
  
• Lindsey is swapping just one song - IKINW for NTF, completely predictable. and also dropping 3 songs - Sad Angel (highlight last year!), Eyes (always a highlight), and Say Goodbye.
  
• added 6 Christine songs - so this is really the only change and the highlight of this tour - YMLF, SYLM, Everywhere, Little Lies, Songbird and Brown Eyes. mostly pretty good greatest hits selection and I really wish there is no Brown Eyes (sha-la-la? yeah whatever), and if true there will be no Hold Me, it will be sorely missed. (i also wished for Think About Me, but considering the hit-level Chrsitine's other FM songs had, this one was a pretty minor one, so i guess i can understand its non-inclusion.)
