Still think there will be some surprises and old favourites to come. Maybe, he will change the set when he returns to the UK

Most definitely.....

I have a sneaky feeling.  Remember Guy will leave the band if they don't play Dancefloor, which considering this is the last tour isn't much of a threat!

meantime on every street going down remembering the set lists of the two previous tours, from the first dates onwards there have not been many changes in the following dates, except for guests, the set lists have always been static.
Last tour Mark played
Broken-replaced by Nobody 
Hill farmers- replaced by OUATITW   
Sultans-replaced by Bacon 
multitime Marbletown-replaced by silvertown & Heart 
in conclusion a few tweaks but the concert structure has not changed much, except for the presence of brass instruments.
A question: knowing that this is the last tour, at least on a large scale, fully satisfies you?

Not really a fair analysis.

Bonaparte was only played twice on the last tour.
OES  only on the US part of the tour so so 99% of the audience that new.
Same goes for Your Latest trick
Also totally ignoring the return of MFN  - I guess 99% will be so glad to have that back. and
STF and  Matchstick Man
On top of that quite new arrangements for a lot of the songs.

That makes it 8-9-10 changes from the last euro tour - thats about HALF of the show.

I think they have made some mighty fine choices and have a very smooth working show which is WAY better than last tour.

Speedway sounding better now.

TR now.

Just another vote for Breaking Bad and Better Call Saul. Only because the set-list isn’t exactly giving us much to talk about. Until tomorrow, of course, when Guy announces his immediate departure from the band because of the lack of a Dance Floor....

There's plenty to talk about the current set list and Guy has already said as per DR F Forum, he's not leaving as they have played BOTDF......

BOTDF is obviously to come, maybe as a replacement opener for NDT?

They seem to have integrated NDT into the opening with Crocks introduction and the band walking on stage so I think it's here to stay now as opener.

Meantime TR roll 
your answer: I am fully satisfied

Poorer TR tonight.  In fact, generally I think the show has been less impressive than Cordoba.

I thought Madrid was the top show so far?

Hmm, attempts at humour don’t always work. Re set list, I’m actually delighted by OUATITW, Silvertown and MFN, my point is that we’re not seeing much day-to-day change to discuss. And does anyone think that playing Dance Floor in rehearsal remotely counts?
