i do agree that with FM the problem may be that there are 3 songwriters (and at least 2 of them are fiercely competitive so they want the balance between them) so it's very possible that plays into their unbelievably conservative and stale set choices. but there is no excuse - other than laziness to rehearse extra songs or complete insecurity in their abilities - for not changing setlists from date to date. every single band or solo performer i've seen in the last 2 years (and i've seen quite a few) varies their setlists from date to date; whether they are old legendary bands or young ones. people who say it's just Bruce must not go to see many different bands, i suppose. because it's not just Bruce (or Grateful Dead). like i said, tons of other bands do it.

What show is that?

The show they played all the new Rumours songs and nobody knew them. The reaction was dead...pretty funny in hindsight when we all know what eventually happened with that album. He mentions it in many interviews...I think Behind the Music and the press junket for the 2013 tour. Speaking of press junket, shouldn't they be starting to promote this next tour? Also, will we actually hear how Christine sounds anywhere before the tour begins?

Thanks! Hadn't read that before. Pretty hard to believe people not responding to GYOW, etc. And to be the first to hear it, that'd be awesome.

This will be a surprise if she will play the tune.I agree with PenguinHead about FM will focus on market demand popular tunes that the public knows.I love to see them do true fan shows where they play non hit tunes but there is no money in doing that.
I hope the tour will be more focused on Chris since we missed her so much.Its time to shine the spotlight on her.

They should do a Rolling Stones-type show in NYC's Beacon Theater, maybe when it gets close to the 50th anniversary year of the band. A small intimate setting filmed by a great director like Martin Scorsese or Jonathan Demme, who have done many distinguished music films. A taped concert with hits, but also the essential songs in the catalogue that they're leaving off for their tours: Black Magic Woman, Albatross, Oh Well, Why, Get Like You Used to Be, Think About Me, Little Lies, Isn't It Midnight, Beautiful Child, etc.

That is something they should seriously consider. The shows with air time on HBO and Showtime, following their release, have done huge business. I see The History of the Eagles on every week. Plus, FM has never done an exceptional concert film.

This is a fantastic idea, and I would love it.
