Song Predictions

[StolenAway0721]

So I decided to give a little DMB song prediction for Hartford, CT N1 and N2...Mostly because they are the first two nights of the tour...

My thoughts going in are that we will see 6-7 Big Whiskey songs per night for the summer tour, and that 3-4 of them will be doubled up each night on a two-night stopover. Also, I always put in for songs to possibly return, which may not happen in 2010, or at all soon (You Never Know, Hello Again, Long Black Veil), and included some that have recently returned in Europe 2010 (Big Eyed Fish, Sugar Will, #27, Loving Wings). I am well aware that the odds of all 7 of the above songs being played in two nights to start a tour are very slim...But, Dave loves Hartford and we usually get great shows and 1-2 randoms each night/stopover, so maybe not all 7, but plug in songs like Satellite, One Sweet World, So Much To Say, Too Much, Proudest Monkey, Stay and Where Are You Going into some of those 7 slots if it makes you feel better...

N2 would take like 4 1/2 hours, but I like the sets.

[carter41dmb]

good sets, and possible....except they dont play 21-23 songs in a night in the states. more like 18-19

[msjpearson]

Probably like we have seen in past tours. Something safe, like what they played in Europe this winter. Once everyone complains and thinks the band is not as good this year as they were during the _____ touring year, they will drop a set that will silence the critics, and turn a corner. That may not happen until SPAC this year.

Ya but thats like a week into the tour so its not like we will need to wait long for that corner..its just how long they stay on that turn afterwards.

They're gonna start the tour very safely, as they start every tour. SPAC is early in the tour which could either be good news or bad news. Good news if they play an awesome show there and the rest of the tour picks up after that. Bad news if they haven't built their momentum yet and SPAC ends up having very typical setlists. i'm thinkin something like this for the tour opener:

N1:

Proudest Monkey ...>
Satellite
Funny the Way It Is
Seven
Shake Me Like a Monkey
Big Eyed Fish
Lying in the Hands of God
Grey Street
#27
Don't Drink the Water
#41
Ants Marching
Corn Bread
Jimi Thing
You & Me
Stay
--------------------------------------------------
Baby Blue
So Damn Lucky
All Along the Watchtower


N2:

Shake Me Like a Monkey
Bartender
Stay or Leave
Squirm
Funny the Way It Is
Sugar Will
Seven
Crush
Where Are You Going
Everyday
So Much to Say
Spaceman
You Might Die Trying
Burning Down the House
Crash Into Me
Why I Am
Tripping Billies
---------------------------------------------
Sister
Two Step

hopefully they'll prove me wrong

anybody who thinks they're going to play 6-7 BW songs every night is stupid. there is no way they play that many.

They gave the impression that they love those songs. I wouldn't be too sure...

i don't usually do this, but fixed.

while i agree with you since that's what they've done in the past, i think it'll be different this year. dave likes an even mix between old and new, and i don't think he can connect to anything new besides Big Whiskey, YMDT, and SDL. Let's face it, we're not gonna get any sets that are more than 50% big 3 material. And since Everyday & Stand Up aren't getting a lot of play, all that's left is Big Whiskey to choose from so they're probably gonna fall back on that a lot.

Less Big Whiskey won't mean more classics, it'll mean more Everyday/Stand Up. Is that what we really want?

I disagree with that; they've pretty much stopped playing those albums for the most part. By 08, how many SU songs were they playing consistently? Two or three? How many ED? One or two tops. How many UTTAD, Crash, and BTCS songs were in the picture? Much more than that. They've pretty much stopped playing ED and SU, whether it's due to them not liking the material as much or listening to how much fans don't like them.

As for what the sets will look like, I think it'll probably look like 2006 or 2007, with BW songs as opposed to SU songs. I took the Nissan show from 06 and made a few little changes. I don't know if this'll be the exact songs we see, but in terms of new stuff, rarities and crowdpleasers I'd imagine it'll look like this.

What Would You Say?
Everyday
Stay Or Leave
Squirm
Alligator Pie
Grace Is Gone
Louisiana Bayou
Lying In The Hands Of God
Bartender
Sugar Will
Grey Street
Dancing Nancies
Crash Into Me
You & Me
Typical Situation
Shake Me Like A Monkey
Pantala Naga Pampa-->
Rapunzel
========
Pig-->
Stay (Wasting Time)

I think that'll be the basic idea.
