But then, he also said in NYC 2009 the full River album performance that night would be the only full River album performance ever.. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

It wouldn't be my choice, but provided the shows were the usual length, there would be plenty more to hold my interest. 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

I'm willing to bet he will also play songs from WS, although he said he wouldn't. 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

(In stadiums) Also WS songs will be a good reason for 'casual fans' to order some drinks, for a toilet break and to chat and talk and scream while Bruce is singing Moonlight Motel. 2 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

As fun as rarities can be, there was a reason that the band on the Tunnel tour was so tight: more or less the same songs were played every night. Rarities usually seem to be played a bit sloppily (which is understandable), so how about making rarities (more) regular for a coming tour? Like Be True in '88. Bruce saying "We've never played this before" from the stage is equally thrilling as it is - almost - a warning saying "this might be a total train wreck". 2 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

There are so many great songs that he rarely or never plays. I don't care if there's a new album or not. There's already too many songs that I've never heard. 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
