I require WAM on Sunday as opener or I really start to lose hope that it will feature upcoming setlists...

So, soon we can confirm the complete disappearing of HFB/BIA, sadly, replace NDT with one of these... and OSAAT ??!! Best song of the album left out???

I said this earlier, downside of having too many musicians on stage who need their space and moments, and for each album it's harder to squeeze in all songs in the same size setlist...

Or is it mainly MK's struggling to play fast that's the reason?

If not BIA/OSAAT will feature at all, big disappointment. :thumbsdown

Come on, its just show 2 and the set is so fresh and awesome. I don't understand the complaining at all.

Of course, I'll give it a few more shows, but starting, just starting to see the pattern...

Metroland was the intro of Matchstick Man

No, it wasn't  ??? At least, i don't hear it. It's the melody of Matchstick Man/Heart of Oak

I can clearly hear the Metroland theme for a few seconds before the Matchstick Man stars. I first thought he would sing « yearning we were yearning.... »

maybe 1 less song just because of the cold and it will come back...
If it was the case, then Corn Beef City was a much better candidate to be dropped than the opener !

Me too. No doubt. It was a downer NOT to get the complete song. Although Matchstick Man was great of course. Both would have been perfect.

If I'd said to you all Once Upon a Time In the West, Silvertown and others would be in the set you'd be really excited.  It's not taken long for people to start complaining!

Well said Dutchessy BTW!

Listened again, and compared to Metroland, and i really can't hear it. The trumpets sounds the same, true... But the melody is different.

Well said Dutchessy....I don't get the complaining one Iota.  Just be thankful for one last time that MK is playing at all...Rest assured those that do moan are on limited time.

well they sound the same because those few notes are exactly the same melody basically, especially played with the trumpets,
just like for example Long Cool Girl is a 'different' song from R&J but the melody is the same, it's like a spin-off
