my fault...i went that direction after D posted a few son titles that she'd heard live
what got me listing these was seeing that GL was doing basically the same tune shuffle this tour as in the past while...i was speculating that he might pull a couple out that hadn't been played live for decades, or better yet, for the band's own stimulation, take on a few that never made it into the live rotation throughout his career ...it was just a ridiculous dream....when he's got 35+ under his(their) belt, why go through having to brush up on lyrics, etc, etc...besides, some of my fave concert memories are when he's stumbled over lyrics or did a restart...yeah, more bang for your concert buck
my general take is that once a full set of live songs are released on dvd (like Reno) then it's time to get a fresh lot out next tour, until a new DVD is released, etc ,etc
i am clearly in the minority...when Gord breaks into Baby Step Back most folks all around me are smilin, hootin, tappin and singing like they've never heard it live before...if it aint broke, why fix it...and it sure aint broke
