Quite a letdown they cut the setlist. Hope that was due to the rain!
Forum: Tell Me

Heartbreaker, Sweet Virginia and Flowers have all been played in Houston in 2019, so I guess I will vote for Live With Me. Plus, choosing a rocker makes it more likely we will get a more obscure ballad like Worried About You, Fool To Cry or No Expectations.

Well, strangely, Trump used YCAGWYW the moment he triumphed. And pre-Inauguration Heart of Stone, which was pretty funny in regards to Hillary.

Don't forget France had some bad things happening at public events in recent years. Maybe that's the reason for the slow entrance.

Impressive setlist so far. They finally got rid of that 65 years old new song.

I think UMT would work well giving the playing is good enough, otherwise it should be called "Ladies and Gentlemen - Chuck Leavell!".

Quotevertigojoe There be a @#$%& stampede for the exits like you never seen if they started with that on the forthcoming European tour. That was also one of my thoughts, which is funny because I listened to hundreds of bootlegs, many from 1997/98, but something like that never crossed my mind until recently. That made me once again think about how much this new century has already been dera

I don't let acts of terrorism prevent me from enjoying Sinbad, 1001 Arabian Nights, or countless other examples of Arabic culture the same way the Holocaust doesn't prevent me from watching Fritz Lang's early

Yesterday is was listening to the Stade de France 1998 show. I totally forgot about the chant "Allahuakbar" just before the curtains of the big screen open in the intro. Listening from today, it is quite hard to imagine any major act would open a show with something like that, in a post 911, post Bataclan world. Does anybody know anything about the idea behind the BtB intro and who came

Never understood why they dumped Play With Fire or any other ballad from the set after Hamburg, where the song was really really good, much better than in 89/90.

Does anybody know what sunglasses Keith is wearing in recent years? They look massive and greenish and he frequently wears them at least since Spring 2014 (e.g. Berlin 2014 and also in his most recent "Happy new year" video).

Quotedead.flowers SFTD in Hamburg. I have a fair question. How would you rank the Hamburg rendition of Sympathy with a view to the other Filter gigs? Personally, I like it very much, find it quite outstanding, but difficult to compare since I have attended only Hamburg, and know the others only from the internet. dead.flowers I was there and have listened to it a lot...I think it wa

Quotegeordiestone The only real weak points for me is I love Gimme Shelter but to me it just doesn't work as 2nd last song. Personally I liked it best when they would play it about 5 songs in.

Quotebeachbreak I love U2 but the last few "theme" albums weren't of interest to me. Weird, but the titles "Songs of Innocence, or Experience or whatever" just turned me off, too self indulgent sounding. Absolutely agree, haven't listened to a single bit of it.

Play With Fire was the absolute highlight of the Hamburg show. Don't know why they just dropped it after one outing. They did so with Sway too. After they debuted it in Sept. 2005 in Columbus, they didn't play it again until Jan. 2006. To me, having seen just Hamburg, the main problem of the tour was the setlist. Even a 20 song set is not long enough if they include SFM, PIB, YCAGWYW,
