So basically, of the 17 songs Mick sings in the set, 13 of them are absolutely locked in to be played every night
And I remember people moaning on the BTB tour because there was something like 9-10 songs that they were getting played at every show.
17 songs got played at more than half of the shows. Wow.
Keith's set seems to be exactly split between 14 slow songs and 14 rockers. One of each per night.
I really dont understand how they cant even change the running order of the second half of the show (apart from when one of the warhorses gets moved up to the opening song)
If I'm not mistaken, Dublin not only got the only 'Neighbours' but the only performance of TWO songs from Blue & Lonesome.
I guess thats what that tour manager guy was referring to when he talked up that gig by saying theyd play songs that they then would probably not play anywhere else.
I actually thought 'Bitch' had been played more often - Twickenham and Warsaw was it?
And its pretty fucked up that of all the shows Sweet Virginia got to, the one night they played the bloody song was one where she wasnt there.
These were the stats from setlist.com...I didnt get too crazy with the confirmation of each show...but it looked right as I checked each show the day after... I also noticed the SV situation...sadface.
Both BITCH and SV only got one play each in No Filter pt 1
#Dublin:
>The only Neighbours
>One of 2 Wild Horses ( it was flawless, especially with the sun set and watching it from Pit B)
>Both B&L songs
>The only SFTD Opener
>The only show with a MOD from each major RS board in the same PIT at the same time
>The only show where a red glitter cowboy hat gets you 2 pints after the show
These are all facts folks...verifiable and unique
