And he has never cared for anyone to tell him what he should or shouldn't play, so why start now?
We also have a tendency here at Ants to think that "the fans" are us. I tend to think than an overwhelming majority of the fans at these shows don't share any of our concerns and just have a great time. Read the comments during a periscope, someone last night heard Rooftop and said "Is this new?" Most people aren't watching shows with the DMBAlmanac Liberation List in their hands.

If Dave has a blast playing Stand Up, and sees the crowd having a blast he's going to keep playing it. I don't think they're going to notice the Ant in the crowd scoffing at the song selection and crossing their arms.
