Its not rigged but you have to consider that the world and his wife can cast a vote - And they do - especially his wife and she only knows the hits.
There is no reason to rig the vote, they can play whatever they want and some shows dont bother to do the vote. I imagine they would much rather play Bitch or Virginia than Lets Spend The Night.
It would be better if there was a way of only letting those actually attending the show, get a vote. However I dare say it would be the same outcome as a lot of casual fans go to big shows like this and they only know, care about and want hits.
It would be more meaningful and exciting if they put up some deep cuts of songs that have rarely been played or have never been played live at all - songs off the beaten path.
As quick example off the top of my head:
All Sold Out
Casino Boogie
Hide Your Love
Down in the Hole
Any would be great to hear live, and most casual fans probably wouldn't know one from the other so would probably just pick a random choice.
Love those songs! But how will they sound?

btw.:
I think it's absolutely disgusting that they offically announce the winner of the song vote hours before the beginning of the show - please stop it!!!

2 reasonnable surprises to be played in Warsaw could be :
Faraway Eyes (already submitted to votation, but too obscure to be a winner)
Play With Fire - played at the 1st show last year and nice way to close the tour to bring it back

The low point of this tour for me has been the song vote..stuck in the '60's!!!.

you can't blame the song vote for being stuck in the 60s. In fact a lot of non-60s songs were in the song vote but only few people voted for them:
- Far Away Eyes
- Angie
- Moolight Mile
- Hearbreaker (4 times !)
- She's So Cold
- Dancing With Mr D
- Respectable (3 times)
- Just My Imagination
