I have serious doubt that MFN could return, moreover this is the sort of song they played to death on past tours and basicaly Mark play the riff and everybody follow. I would opt for a more "obscure" or "challenging" one.

Regarding SL I was very happy that Mark did not perform it on last european leg.

And finger crossed that WOL won't make a return either.

RAH setlist was very pleasant, so all I hope is basically the same only with different songs from the GL album played.

The haters are those who write shit

Song for sonny liston was on the rehearsel list 2010 too...

I think it could be True love will never fade... John Mccusker did a great job on that one in 2008...

Maybe Tunnel of Love? :lol

Only one song?  I read not only one.

What an anticlimax!   All that excitement about a new song and its, wait for it, the fish and the yawn.  An ok song on te album as far as it goes, but, as others have said, the album is very much a mood thing.  Live, this song is a excuse to go to the loo or buy a beer.  Yawn.  It also de,mands very little playing on MK's part.  I know this band is brilliant, but I'd like to hear a bit more of MK please.

I was only joking, anyway - in my the "Fish And The Bird" could be great live.

I have listened to the Simfy recording (damn it, another one I had to buy !!). Have to say the fish and the bird, altough nowhere close to the song I would have chosen to introduce had I been granted this priviledge, sounds very nice.
Now Guy started talking about newly rehearsed songS, but then dropped the "S" in the new entry... does it mean they will only do this one, or could we hope for Postcards or Rudiger ??

Very disappointed it was The Fish and The Bird and not So Far From The Clyde. Both have the same kind of slow melancholy mood so it seems So Far From the CLyde would have been a good choice. I'm sure there is some special reason that Mark doesn't want to play this song but we my never find out what.
