Wow, touchy.

That setlist is pretty much what I expected. Not too many surprises there sadly.

Oh, the song. That's better. Don't you know that you have to justify everything around here

Bye bye? You leaving so soon?

i understand and appreciate that, but ...

But that's all totally moot in today's Fleetwood Mac, so why bother?

exactly.

That's Enough For Me? What Makes You Think?

Not sure they could pull off The Ledge these days, might be too much. And [I]please God, no Not That Funny.[/I]

^^^^ took the words right out of my mouth!

Personally, I would rather have What makes you think you're the one as opposed to Not that Funny...

I'd rather have both! Either would suffice on its own, though.

i don't want to hear TEFM or WMYTYTO either, though. i can't deal with most of lindsey's staccato 2/4 tusk songs. they're too OTT frenetic for me. i don't even like the title song (yeah, i said it.).

not that OTT is necessarily bad. i love IKINW because it's OTT bombastic in a live setting. easily one of my top 3 faves from the 06 lindsey tour.

but if they're going to do a lindsey tusk song that isn't IKINW, let it be "walk a thin line."

i just hope that this boring setlist is correct and they don't include SMAP. because, even with 50 backup musicians and singers, they are just not capable of topping this:

See, I would want to hear either of them, just to hear them done. I never would have guessed that they could pulll off IKINW, but they did. Walk a Thin Line is too slow/drawn out for the general audience, it would end up being the pee-break song.

Agreed on SMAP - I f*cking love that vid clip.

Wow. That was harsh. She was just asking your opinion about something to start a dialogue - it's what we do here.

BTW - Tusk the song? I can take it or leave it.

Well they did 24 songs on the SYW tour...and that was what a 2 hour show?
Mick said in a recent interview that this is going to be a 2.5 hour show so even if SYW was 2 hr 15 minutes we aren't going to get 15 extras minutes of solos and intros. I believe part of that set list is true but I think we may have a few other surprises.

eric51078 · #**115** 02-23-2009, 01:25 PM

Actually the Live in Boston DVD was 120 minutes...2 hours...I just wanted to correct myself. 24 songs in 2 hours...they should be able to put in 3 or 4 more song in an extra 1/2 hour....6 more days and we will find out!!!

Don't get your hopes up. It's probably 2.5 hours including 7 minutes of chirping crickets and the 20-minute intermission. The other three minutes will be added to the conga solo at the beginning of "Stand Back."

Of course it will include all that...but what intermission? If they did an intermission I want 30 songs!

They are not gonna have an intermission. The will do 2 seperate encores, for a break- I am sure, but there will not be an intermission. I would put money on it.

Okay... I'm having a senior moment... I thought there was an intermission during SYW... Yikes! Where did I dream that up?

Mick will need the separate encores so he can suck down the oxygen tanks, as per the mirage tour vhs.
