or play all Abba songs... or rotate night to night... one night play Sonny and Cher Songs the next night play Kiss songs, the next night they could...Quote
Come On
That idea I like. They could play at smaller places and only with material from Robert Johnson's repertoire ...

A little late in the game for just playing new material. It also seems the people calling for more new material at concerts slag off the recent albums. You can't have it both ways.

Words of wisdom from that man. Everybody complains about warhorse heavy sets but slags off A Bigger Bang (or indeed anything post 1981).

Add in two songs from 'Emotional Rescue' (an album they didnt tour behind) and the five from 'Some Girls' (an album they didnt tour behind anywhere but around 25 gigs in the US) and half the show consisted of songs that were a) less than four years old and b) which had never been played in Europe before.
Additionally, three cover versions theyd not previously recorded, an opener which hadnt been performed live since 1966, LSTNT which had been played only a couple of times since 1967, 'Let It Bleed' (never played live until 1981), 'Time is on my side' (not played prior to this tour since about 1965-66) and thats a long way from a show that was mostly 'warhorses and oldies'.
In 1978, almost half the show consisted of songs off an album released that same month (8 songs), two Chuck Berry covers (one a UK-only b side and the other being one theyd never recorded), a Robert Johnson song off Let It Bleed which they hadnt played in six years and 'Satisfaction' (only played about 4 times and largely ignored throughout the 70s).
Not too many warhorses there either.

This is true, but perhaps my biggest criticism of the 1978-1982 tours is that they didn't play Midnight Rambler, Gimme Shelter, Sympathy For The Devil, etc.
