is it true the place was only 3/4 full?
that's what the plain dealer reviewer said

I like to think that it was more than 3/4 full, but yeah there were seats available.

There were a few new t-shirts added since Columbus. There is a white one with a penguin (it was very cool) and one like the album cover with them lying down.

Don't worry, they still played;

What's the World Coming To
PeaceKeeper
Say You Will
Say Goodbye
Goodbye Baby
Come

But they're nuts for not rehearsing Thrown Down and releasing that as the next single.

Very very dissapointing. I really really PRAY they bring it BACK!

Could someone who was at the Cleveland show please post a setlist in order? Since songs are being dropped again I'd love to see just what is left and what order they're being played.

Thanks so much!

I was thinking about this, and really, Lindsey and Stevie have the same amount of "spotlight" songs now.

Stevie's 10: Dreams, Say You Will, Rhiannon, Gypsy, Landslide, Beautiful Child, Gold Dust Woman, Silver Springs, Stand Back, and Goodbye Baby.

Lindsey's 10: Eyes Of The World, Never Going Back Again, Second Hand News, Come, Big Love, Say Goodbye, What's The World Coming To, I'm So Afraid, Tusk, and Go Your Own Way.

Then they pretty much "duet" on The Chain, Peacekeeper, World Turning, and Don't Stop.

It's seriously disappointing that they would drop Destiny Rules and Running Through The Garden though.
If it were up to me (or probably any of us, for that matter), I'd rather see them keep either of those two songs over Stand Back (as much as I love it, I still think solo songs should be left for solo tours). But then most every person who's been to one of the shows so far, has mentioned how excited and happy the audiences are when the band plays Stand Back... so i guess there's no hope of this one ever being dropped.

Either way, I guess it doesn't really matter in the long-run, and if I were getting to go to one of the shows, I'm sure I'd be just so excited to see them, I'd be content with anything they chose to play.

I agree on the Stand Back thing, Stew...

I hope I wont be regretting NOT going to opening night... if they keep dropping... it would have been worth the flight.

My parents saw the Cleveland show and e-mailed to say they thought it was great. They're not exactly rabid fans, so it's good to hear that more casual listeners are enjoying the tour.
Among the more interesting bits they had to share:

"It was a lot like the concert of a few years ago, minus Christine which I don't think was a huge deal. The sound system was really messed up for the first four songs or so, but they got it straightened out and it all sounded great.... We thought Stevie's voice sounded different - maybe not quite as raspy."
